Mandy Moore has taken to Instagram to announce she's pregnant with her third child.

The actress, 40, shared an adorable picture of her two sons - Gus and Ozzie - as she made the announcement. The youngsters looked very cute in the snap as they held hands and wore matching white T-shirts, with one reading "Big" and the other "Middle".

Mandy wrote: "Sometimes life imitates art. The third in our own Big Three coming soon. Can’t wait for these boys to have a baby sister," referencing her role on the hit show This Is Us in which she played a mum of triplets. Mandy tagged her husband Taylor Goldsmith in the post and fans have rushed to share their congratulations.

"The big three, the big treasure congratulations Mandy & family!" a third fan said. Someone else added: "How wonderful! Congratulations!!" Mandy's happy news comes after she was previously told she had a "slim chance of getting pregnant".

Taking to Instagram earlier this year, the actress said she was given the heartbreaking news during a visit to the doctor. She said: "I've always wanted to be a mom. Before bringing my two boys into the world with my love, @taylordawesgoldsmith, I was a mom to many many cats and at times, just as many dogs (and admittedly today, I still am).

"But there was a time when I thought I might not be able to have kids. I remember when the doctor told me there was a slim chance of getting pregnant… and then lo and behold to our surprise, I became pregnant with Gus."

Mandy was told she may never be able to get pregnant after having surgery to attempt to fix medial issues. She said the medical issues led her to be wary when she first became pregnant. "I was very hesitant to believe it and put any stock in it," she said in an interview with Romper.

She added: "I sort of was holding my breath until 12 weeks." Mandy also gushed over her life as a mother on social media. She said: "Motherhood is a beautiful, messy, sleepless gift and to have two kiddos under two…whew!"

Luckily, she had her role as Rebecca on This Is Us to help her prepare. Mandy wrote: "Playing Rebecca on #ThisIsUs actually prepared me for it a bit — like changing a diaper for the first time and running around set with 'triplets'."

Mandy and Taylor welcomed their first son August "Gus" Harrison Goldsmith in February 2021. In October 2022, Mandy then gave birth to their second son, Oscar "Ozzie" Bennett Goldsmith.
