A wave of congratulations is sweeping through Hollywood as Elisabeth Moss, the Emmy-winning star of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” joyfully announced on Tuesday night (January 30) that she is expecting her first child. The 41-year-old actress made the delightful revelation during her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where she officially debuted her baby bump, marking the beginning of a new chapter in her life.
As Elisabeth walked onto the set and took a seat next to host Jimmy Kimmel, the immediate focus turned to her growing bump. With his characteristic humor, Jimmy couldn’t help but tease Elisabeth, asking, “Are you pregnant or just an incredibly committed method actor?” Elisabeth, ever witty, responded with a laugh, “A little bit of both.”
Opening up about her pregnancy journey, Elisabeth shared the heartwarming news with her fans. “It’s not bad, actually,” she expressed, radiating the joy that comes with impending motherhood. “I’ve been really lucky. It’s been going really well,” she added, giving a glimpse into the positive experience she’s been having on this exciting journey.
Known for keeping her personal life private, Elisabeth gracefully avoided revealing the identity of the father of her child. Instead, she chose to focus on the joy and well-being that her pregnancy has brought into her life. The announcement not only thrilled her fans but also celebrated the joyous moments that come with embracing motherhood.
During the interview, Elisabeth sought parenting advice from Jimmy, who is a seasoned dad of four. Jimmy, with a twinkle in his eye, shared a piece of wisdom he received from the legendary Bill Murray. According to Jimmy, Bill suggested bringing Christmas lights to hang up in the delivery room, creating a warm and comforting ambiance for the blessed event. As an additional touch, Bill recommended bringing battery-operated candles, noting the less-than-ideal lighting conditions in delivery rooms.
“I think that’s a really good list, I like that,” Elisabeth responded, expressing her appreciation for the thoughtful advice. The exchange between Elisabeth and Jimmy showcased a genuine camaraderie, highlighting the shared experiences and wisdom that unite parents on their unique journeys.
From Emmy winner to expectant mom, Elisabeth Moss is gracefully navigating the transitions, and the world eagerly awaits the arrival of the newest member of her family. May this chapter be filled with love, laughter, and the boundless joys that parenthood brings. Congratulations, Elisabeth!
