While her words quickly sparked curiosity, a spokesperson stepped in to clarify that Lauren is not expecting a child. The comment, though lighthearted, revealed her enduring passion for raising children and the fulfillment she finds in family life.
For many women in their 50s, conversations about motherhood tend to look backward. Lauren flips that narrative forward, embracing possibility, even if hypothetically. If Lauren ultimately decides to have another baby, she will be part of the latest statistics. For the first time in U.S. history, more women over 40 are giving birth, according to a 2025 CDC report.

"All of our kids gave speeches, mine and Jeff’s, and they were all so meaningful," Lauren told the outlet. "My daughter gave a speech during the ceremony, this was before we said our vows, and [I] started bawling. Like, I could not- I'm like, 'Oh, my gosh' right before the pictures."
The ceremony took place on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, Italy. Over 200 guests gathered for the lavish celebration. Lauren shares three children from previous relationships: son Nikko, 25, with former NFL star Tony Gonzalez, son Evan, 19, and daughter Ella, 18, with ex-husband Patrick Whitesell.
