Maria Menounos and her husband Keven Undergaro are expecting their first baby, after a years-long struggle with infertility.
“Just after a decade of trying everything, we are so grateful to the beautiful family helping us conceive our baby,” Menounos, 44, told People on Feb. 7. “Keven, my dad and I are all beyond excited for this soul to come into our lives. What a blessing.”
In 2021, the entertainment reporter opened up to TODAY.com about the surrogacy process. At the time, she was feeling frustrated.
“Every psychic says, ‘You’re having twins,’” Menounos said. “And I’m like, ‘I’m having nothing. Nothing is working.’”

“We had an amazing surrogate and we loved her,” she continued. “But our fertility doctor told us that it was never going to work. We tried and tried and and tried and tried.”
Menounos said the failed attempts were taking an emotional toll on both her and Undergaro, 55.
“You start to think, ‘Am I too old? Am I too tired? Is this a sign? Is it a message that we’re not supposed to have kids?’” she said.
