Elisabeth Moss is back on television screens as one of the stars of Apple TV’s new thriller Imperfect Women, which premiered with its first two episodes on March 18. On the show, she plays a mother to three children.

Her character Mary’s life revolves around her kids and her friendships with Eleanor (Kerry Washington) and Nancy (Kate Mara). But what is Moss’ family situation in real life? Scroll down for everything we know.

Does Elisabeth Moss have children?

Yes, Moss is a mother to one child. She announced her pregnancy news during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in January 2024. The news was revealed when host Jimmy Kimmel asked, “Are you pregnant or just an incredible method actor?” and Moss replied, “A little bit of both.”

She quietly welcomed her child, whose name and gender she has not publicly disclosed, at some point in 2024. However, she did not confirm the news until March 2025. While attending a PaleyFest LA event, Moss opened up about bringing her baby to work while she filmed the final season of The Handmaid’s Tale.

The actress also spoke about being grateful she was able to share motherhood with her Handmaid’s Tale character as the show came to an end. “I’m really glad that I got to have this last season playing June with a little bit more of a visceral emotional experience of some of the things that June is talking about or fighting for,” she explained.

Who is the father of Elisabeth Moss’ baby?

Moss has not shared the identity of her only child’s father. She is mostly private about her love life and is not known to currently be in a relationship.

Previously, Moss was married to Fred Armisen. They tied the knot in October 2009, just one year after they first met. However, Moss filed for divorce in September 2010, and it was finalized the following year.

Was Elisabeth Moss pregnant while filming Imperfect Women?

No, Moss was not pregnant while filming Imperfect Women, but she was a fairly new mom when production on the show began in May 2025. Although we don’t know the exact date her baby was born, the show was filmed about a year after she gave birth in 2024.
