Mandy Moore Opens Up on Family, Says Mom & 2 Brothers are Gay
READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Actress Mandy Moore opened up about her nontraditional family this week in an interview with Byrdie, revealing she has two gay brothers and that her mom is also gay.
The singer, who currently stars on the hit NBC show "This is Us," said her family is "the least traditional" and talked about her LGBT siblings and mother.
"I've never really talked about this, but my parents are divorced. My mother left my father for a woman," she told Byrdie. "And both of my two brothers are gay."
Moore, 32, went on to say that her own marriage with rocker Ryan Adams (they've since divorced) was her way of trying to be traditional but added:
"I learned that that wasn't going to be the fruitful experience I wanted it to be," she said. Moore went on to say that her family is "exactly where they should be. Everyone's so much happier, richer, and more fulfilled, being their authentic selves."
"I want to have kids in the next couple years," the actress said. "I always said that I want to take care of myself to the best of my ability before I venture into that phase of my life."
