The Princess DiariesThe Dawes artist and star tied the knot in November 2018 and welcomed Gus almost three years later. Moore spoke out months before Gus’s February 2021 arrival about some of the more difficult symptoms she had during her first pregnancy.
“I was really sick in the beginning,” she said on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle ShowNovember 2020. “I was home, so … I didn’t have to miss out on work. I don’t know how women do it. I literally woke up and was sick all day long.”

The New Hampshire native revealed that she “couldn’t eat” and “stayed in bed all day,” causing her to lose some weight. However, she felt “lucky” to be on the mend. “I feel much better now. I feel like my energy is back. [am] feeling good,” the then-expectant star added. “No complaints.”
Moore faced a few health problems after giving birth. “Back at the hematologist to see if my platelets have gone up since having the baby,” she wrote via her Instagram Story in March 2021, noting that her levels were “still not great” following Gus’ delivery. “Friends with low platelets: what has worked? I took iron, B12 and folate … and ate all the lentils and dark leafy greens, etc.”
She continued, “I’m on a mission to do whatever I can to get them to a solid place, so I don’t have to wonder or worry during the next pregnancy.”
Moore was ready to welcome baby No. 2, even though she had to face some highs and lows along her journey to motherhood. Moore wanted to have baby number 2. “I’ve said to my husband so many times — and really anyone that has come by that will listen — I’m like, ‘I can’t wait to do it again,’” she said on the “Informed Pregnancy” podcast in March 2021. “As harrowing as the journey was, I miss it. I’m sad that I don’t get to relive it or do it again or something.”
