“One incredibly seminal chapter of my life just ended and the next one, as a mother of two, is about to start… and are we ever so deeply grateful and excited. Baby Boy Goldsmith #2 coming this fall!” she writes alongside an adorable photo of Gus wearing a big brother t-shirt.
“Tour is gonna be slightly different than I expected but I can’t wait and Gus is gonna be the BEST big brother!! Xo,” adds Moore, who recently released her new album, In Real Life.
Just last month, Moore spoke to Instagram about her experience as a mom as she celebrated Mother’s Day.

“Being your mom is nothing short of the most rewarding and challenging job I’ll ever have. I savor all of it because you are the greatest, Goose, AND it keeps getting better (as everyone told us),” she wrote alongside a series of photos of her with her little boy.
When speaking with Parents for the magazine’s December 2021 cover story last year, Moore explained how her life has changed since welcoming Gus.
“Not to sound cheesy, but all the clichés are true. Life is Technicolor now. It just makes sense in a way that it didn’t before,” said Moore. “I had no idea that this degree of love existed in the world.”

And when asked whether baby Gus has had an influence on her creativity as an actress and a musician, Moore said motherhood is “going to change what I write about and, as an actor, what I’m able to access.”
“I have a new color to bring to the table that I didn’t have before. It’s going to impact the choices I make when it comes to work. Everything is different now,” she added.
Moore continued to speak about her son’s own love for music.
“He’s just fascinated by the mechanics of music being made. Gus will watch my husband’s fingers while he’s playing the guitar and will start kicking his legs when he hears a beat that he likes, and he really likes it when we sing. He watches my mouth when I’m singing. Maybe he recognizes my voice from in the womb because I used to sing to him all the time.”
