The Emmy Award-winning actress showcased her growing baby bump on Tuesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! 

She opened up about her pregnancy journey as Jimmy asked her how she has been feeling: ‘Not bad, actually. I’ve been really lucky. It’s been going really well.’ 

As Elisabeth is private about her personal life, it is unknown who the father of the child is and her due date is yet to be revealed.  

She’s only gone public with two relationships in the past, and was rumoured to be engaged to fellow Scientologist Tom Cruise.

Fred Armisen

Moss is very private when it comes to her love life as she’s only gone public with two relationships in the past. 

She was previously married to comedian Fred Armisen, 57, which she told Vulture was a ‘traumatic’ and ‘horrible’ experience.

US Weekly reported in 2011 that Moss split up with her husband of two years, ‘SNL’ star Fred over her religious beliefs.

A source told the magazine at the time, ‘They had issues… Her religion was as important to her as their marriage, if not more. He could not get with it.’

However in a 2014 interview with New York Magazine, Moss said that her marriage to Armisen was ‘extremely traumatic and awful and horrible.’

She added that the idea that the ending of her marriage had something to do with Scientology was ‘100 percent made up.’

During that same interview, Moss refused to talk about Scientology. For his part, Armisen once told Howard Stern in an interview, ‘I think I was a terrible husband, I think I’m a terrible boyfriend.’

Moss told The New Yorker in 2022 that she met Armisen in 2008 while guest-starring in a ‘Mad Men’ sketch on ‘SNL.’

After being asked about comments Armisen made during an interview with Marc Maron in which Armisen discussed his intimacy issues, Moss said, ‘I would say, good for him for being open about that. He said more to Marc Maron than he said to me at the time.’

Adam Arkapaw

In 2012, Moss moved on with Australian cinematographer Adam Arkapaw after meeting on the New Zealand set of the mini-series Top of the Lake.

The relationship was confirmed by DailyMail.com at the time.

Moss and Arkapaw dated for three years before splitting in 2015.

Over the years, Moss has been spotted on dates with ‘mystery men’ but she’s yet to go public with another serious relationship.

Tom Cruise

In 2020, Moss was forced to defend her love life when rumors began circulating more than one year ago that she was in a romance with Tom Cruise.

The star sat down to chat with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live when a caller dialed in to ask about her status with the famous scientologist.

‘What was your reaction when you read those gossip stories that you were getting married to Tom Cruise,’ one fan asked the Mad Men star.

Moss hesitated before responding that the entire engagement ordeal was over before it even happened.

‘I actually was confused and also mainly got texts from people being like, “I didn’t know, why didn’t you tell me?,'” she told Andy. ‘And just confusion from my friends, but mainly poking fun at it ’cause obviously they knew it wasn’t true.’

The rumor even further escalated when it appeared on the cover of a magazine in February 2019.

‘And then I saw it on the cover of one of the gossip magazines, and I was like, “I’ve never had that haircut,”‘ she said. ‘Like, it was supposed to be a picture of the two of us and I was like, “I’ve never styled my hair like that.”‘

The unlikely duo may have been formed in part to her Scientologist background, a group which Tom is also notably a part of.
