How Stars Hid Their Pregnancies on Their Hit TV Shows

The This Is Us actress announced in September 2020 that she is expecting a baby with husband Taylor Goldsmith, which means that the hit show will have to work around her baby bump.

Not to worry, the show's creator Dan Fogelman told reporters during a virtual panel attended by PEOPLE, "We haven't really adjusted our plan. We're just going to work Mandy right 'til go time. Amongst the many challenges of this season of production [during the COVID-19 pandemic], that's not a big one."

He did joke that we may not see Moore play the older version of her character, Rebecca Pearson as much "because she would have some really complicated explaining to do."

Moore's co-star Chrissy Metz told ET to expect some creative solutions: "Mandy gets to go back and forth in time; luckily she's pregnant sometimes and so she can kind of cover up her belly. They've done a brilliant job of working around it. I don't know how, I guess it'll be magic."
