The New York native’s baby bump debut came seven months after she opened up to Kelly Clarkson about her fertility issues.
“[IVF] is hardcore,” Elliott said during a Kelly Clarkson Show appearance in February. “So this Valentine’s Day, I’ll be getting shots in my butt by my husband. Very romantic.”
She went on to describe the “intense” hormones, explaining, “So many people go through this and we don’t talk about it enough, I think, as women. We need to raise more understanding and awareness. … It’s such a miracle what doctors can do.”
