Erin Andrews Receives Outpouring Of Support After Sharing Pregnancy Goal

Erin Andrews is receiving a lot of support online after the veteran NFL sideline reporter opened up about wanting to grow her family.

Andrews, 47, has one child with her husband, former NHL star Jarret Stoll. Andrews and Stoll welcomed their son, Mack, into the world in 2023 via surrogacy. Andrews, who previously battled cervical cancer, has struggled with fertility issues.

"Here's my whole thing. I am crazy, and I am with a doctor that said, ‘Listen, we'll call it when it's time.' But I am psychotic right now. I just feel like I believe my body can do it," Andrews told Charissa Thompson.

"Even though I know that my age is not, with what history says, it's not great with producing eggs and the viability of your eggs, there's just some (expletive) in me that I'm like, wait, watch me do it." 

It's not easy to be so vulnerable. Andrews is doing something very courageous. There are millions of other women in the United States, and around the world, that have dealt with similar struggles.
