Mandy Moore Says She Felt Like An ‘Absolute Shell’ Of Herself Before Canceling Her Tour

Mandy Moore is reflecting on the unsettling moments that led her to cancel the remainder of her “In Real Life” tour last month.

The 38-year-old spoke to Today Parents and explained that the decision was for the well-being of herself, her 17-month-old son, Gus, and her unborn baby, whom she is expecting with husband Taylor Goldsmith in October. “I didn’t know I was pregnant when we planned the tour,” Moore shared, adding that she assumed she could “power through” just as she did while being on set filming “This Is Us” when she was in the third trimester of her first pregnancy.

Gus would be standing up in his Pack N’ Play while the bus was shaking — and I was like, ‘No, no, no. We can’t do this anymore.’” “I foolishly thought ‘if I did it before, I can do it again,'” Moore continued. “But every pregnancy is different.

This time, I was caring for a toddler. I was walking around feeling like an absolute shell of myself. I was scared I was going to adversely affect my [unborn] baby and his growth.” While Moore said she had “been looking forward to this [tour] for a decade and half,” she knows that “ultimately, nothing trumps your health, and the health of your baby.” Luckily, Moore has the support of not only her husband, but her OB-GYN, who was relieved she decided to cancel her shows. “She was like, “I know you’re a tough cookie like me, but you’re just gonna rest now, OK?’” READ MORE: Mandy Moore Is Pregnant, Expecting Baby No.
