Enough so that my teen DD said she'd like to go that route (meaning, it's saturated enough that my DD has heard of it) So this is an interesting question.


I don't think Mindy was trying to save her "figure". She is not a hollywood slender person to begin with and her 2nd baby happened during COVID. If she got pregnant in Dec or Jan, she would not be showing before the lockdown.

Another celeb also had a baby and no one knew. Mostly the celebs share their pregnancy journey on social media so it is refreshing to not know such details.

January Jones was tight lipped about her out of wedlock child. No one cared. Same with Minnie Driver.

Then there's the slew of white actresses that have adopted while single. No one bats an eye.






That's not true. People said the exact same things about them that they are saying about Mindy.

I personally think he is the dad. Fits their whole toxic vibe.


I too think BJ Novak is the dad...at least I “ship” them!


Why the hell don’t they marry? Or even cohabit? He seems to have a deep fondness for her.

Ever read the family relationship board on here? Not everyone is better off with their father in the house...

It only sucks if the kids' father is refusing to be involved with them or who walks out on them, that's what sucks for kids.

From most of the posts here it doesn't seem like most fathers contribute that much. Mindy can do it alone and isn't "stuck" like the women here who hitched their wagon to a jerk just so the kid has a father.

Doesn’t look to me like she was hiding it. She just wasn’t advertising it. Not lighting up Insta, and other social media with pregnancy pics. Not asking her publicist to get articles and pics out there to the public. Not doing interviews or posting real time feelings of nausea or baby kicks.

Clearly there are pap pics, they’re just not as popular and she wasn’t trying to use her pregnancy to keep her name relevant to the public. Very much admire that attitude.





Oh come on. She obviously tried to hide it, didn't mention the birth until a month later, etc. She's welcome to do what she wants but to pretend she wasn't intentionally hiding it is crazy. She's also never shown her daughter's face. Does she have the right? Of course, but to pretend it's not intentional is nuts.

Well presumably you had one and look how you turned out?
