Let’s get real for a moment, folks. Beverley Mitchell, the beloved actress from 7th Heaven, is spilling the tea about the challenges of being a mom during the pandemic. Pregnant with her third child, she's juggling homeschooling her two kids while navigating life in quarantine. In an exclusive interview with Closer Weekly, she shares the ups and downs of this whirlwind experience.
Life as a Homeschooling Mom: A Roller Coaster Ride
Beverley, now 39, opens up about the daily grind of teaching her kids while trying to keep her own work on track. "It's tough because I dedicate my entire morning to homeschooling Kenzie, my eldest," she explains. "I don't get anything else done from 7:30 a.m. until around 12:30 or 1 p.m. And then I try to catch up on work in the afternoon. But balancing everything is such a challenge. It's like walking a tightrope, and sometimes I feel like I'm about to fall off!"

Some days I feel like I'm killing it, and other days I feel like it's killing me!

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
Luckily, Beverley isn’t doing it all alone. Her husband of 11 years, Michael Cameron, plays a crucial role in keeping things running smoothly at home. "Michael takes care of Hutton while I focus on Kenzie," she says, beaming with gratitude. "We’ve developed a great team system, and it’s working wonders. Kenzie is thriving, gaining confidence, and getting the extra support she needs in areas where I thought she might struggle. It's truly a blessing."
Preparing for Baby No. 3 Amidst Uncertainty
Things are about to change once the couple welcomes their third child. Beverley revealed her pregnancy back in March, just two years after suffering a miscarriage. Despite the uncertainties brought on by the pandemic, she’s using this time to bond with her kids before their new sibling arrives. "It’s actually been nice to spend quality time with them," she admits. "There are frustrations, of course, but there are also blessings in disguise. We’re finding beauty in the chaos."
Even though homeschooling Kenzie can be tough, especially now that she’s three months pregnant, Beverley acknowledges that some days are better than others. "Yesterday was a disaster. There were tears, stomping feet, and slammed doors. But today? We got everything done. It’s all about taking it one day at a time," she reflects.
Meet the Stars of Beverley’s World
Beverley’s daughter Kenzie, born in 2013, is her little perfectionist. "Kenzie is such a pleaser. She works hard, stays focused, and always wants to do better," Beverley gushes. "She’s my little princess, and I’m so proud of her."

Then there’s Hutton, the couple’s mischievous son, who was born in 2015. "Hutton is a force to be reckoned with," Beverley laughs. "At 5 years old, he’s testing every boundary and pushing me to my limits. He’s a deep thinker, incredibly smart, and always trying to see how far he can push things. It’s both a blessing and a challenge!"
