Alberto Rodriguez / Variety via Getty Images Mandy and Taylor, who have been married since 2018, also share sons Oscar "Ozzy" Bennett and August "Gus" Harrison, who are 2 and 4, respectively. During a recent appearance on Kylie Kelce's Not Gonna Lie podcast, Mandy opened up about what it was like having a baby at 40.

I mean, I feel like having my third child at 40, [there's] this term 'geriatric pregnancy' that's thrown around. I think, at least in my experience, so many of my friends are having kids later in life, whether it's by choice or it's by circumstance or biology." Not Gonna Lie / Via youtu.be "I think the thing that I had the most trouble with is just like this system in general kind of treating us as this anomaly that we're too old and we're too complicated or high risk, and really, it's like, 'Nope, we're just human beings,'" she continued. Not Gonna Lie / Via youtu.be "I feel like it's just such an outdated label. So it's less about how I think the people and the perceptions they may have had, like the people in my life, it was just more about the healthcare system in general. It feels like such an outdated one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to just women in general," she added. Mandy went on to call out the insufficient funding that goes into studies around women's health. "We make up 50 percent of the population, we give birth to the entire population," she stated. Steve Granitz / FilmMagic "I think becoming a mom and going through three pregnancies now... Our bodies are treated as such an afterthought," she added.
