Broadway Star Lea Michele Makes Big Announcement After ‘Really Intense Pregnancy’

Broadway star, Lea Michele, is officially a mom of two.

On Aug. 25, Michele took to Instagram to share a photo of her now family of four all together. “Our hearts are so full,” she wrote.

Michele also shared the name they chose for their baby girl, “Emery Sol Reich.”

The actress, also known for her role as Rachel Berry on Glee, announced that she and her husband Zandy Reich are expecting their second child together in March.

The announcement cames nearly a year after her son, Ever, dealt with devastating medical issues that the family continues to work through today. 

“Mommy, Daddy and Ever are overjoyed,” Michele wrote alongside photos of her burgeoning baby bump.

Several of Lea’s famous friends offered her congratulations in the comments section. Twilight star, Nikki Reed, wrote, “Ahhhhh,” with several heart-eyed emojis.

Zooey Deschanel added, “Congratulations!” And Disney star Ashley Tisdale wrote, “So excited for this beautiful family.”

As Michele revealed in 2021, her pregnancy with Ever was a “really intense pregnancy, I had a very intense journey of trying to get pregnant,” Michele shared with Entertainment Tonight.

“We were pregnant during a pandemic dealing with those complications. And then my son was born, we were in quarantine for almost a year altogether with him, so it’s been pretty wild,” the Broadway star said at the time. 

At the time, Lea Michele admitted that she wishes she had been more vocal about her struggle to get pregnant on social media. “I wasn’t sharing what we were going through behind closed doors,” and as a result, many people “assumed it was fine.”

“It was far from that. And it really was something that I regret. I wish I would have let people know what we were going through because for other mothers that may have been experiencing the same thing, they could have seen my pictures and it would have made them feel a certain way, and I wish I would have shared more.”
