Erin Andrews says she might be ready for baby No. 2!
The sports broadcaster recently told E! News that she is thinking about growing her family, 15 months after the birth of her first child.
Andrews, 46, and her husband, former hockey player Jarret Stoll, welcomed a son, Mack, in July 2023 via a surrogate. She opened up to the outlet about the anxiety and sadness she faced while trying to become pregnant over the years.
“We’re talking about trying it again,” she told the outlet in an interview published on Saturday, October 12. “I was really, really honest with my doctor a couple weeks ago. I just said, ‘We’ve had so much high with the birth of Mack and how great he’s doing that I don’t want to go back to that place of failure again, and I’m really, really afraid of it.’”
Before her surrogate became pregnant with Mack, Erin learned that she lost two of her embryos.
“It’s crazy, because once you get back on the phone with your fertility doctor and you start talking about the journey again, PTSD all comes back, of how crappy you felt, how numb your body gets, just the fear of loss,” she said.
Andrews also said that her husband, 42, also went through his own emotional journey during that process. She added that listening to him share his feelings helped her, as well.
“Sometimes men don’t want to talk about this stuff, but they’re also feeling the feels, too,” said Andrews. “My husband was really, really great after we were going through more lows than highs, just being like, ‘This sucks. This just isn’t great. I feel really crappy, and I feel like a failure,’ and that really helped a lot too.”
Aaron Rodgers is getting the small screen treatment. Fans will get an inside look at the NFL quarterback’s road to recovery amid his season-ending injury in 2023 with Netflix’s forthcoming docuseries, Aaron Rodgers: Enigma. Rodgers, who was drafted 24th overall by the Green Bay Packers in 2005 and played for the organization for 18 seasons, […]
Andrews also recently made headlines for calling out New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers for skipping a postgame interview.
Following the New York Jets‘ 24-3 blowout win over the New England Patriots on September 19, Rodgers did a brief on-field interview with Amazon Prime sideline reporter Kaylee Hartung before heading to the locker room. He did not, however, join Charissa Thompson, Tony Gonzalez, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Andrew Whitworth and Richard Sherman for their postgame show.
Andrews spoke out on the matter during the September 23 episode of her “Calm Down” podcast, which she hosts with Thompson. While she said she was glad to hear Rodgers tell Hartung that he “felt like his old self,” she thought the line would have been more effective on the postgame show where he would be able to discuss it further.
“I’d rather it have been up there on the desk,” she noted. “I didn’t love it.”
