Eva Amurri Opens Up About Birthing Baby No. 3 Without Kyle Martino

Let me tell you a story about Eva Amurri, a woman who’s about to welcome her third baby into the world. As the big day approaches, the actress has been sharing some deeply personal thoughts with her fans. In a recent post on her Happily Eva After blog, she gave us all a peek into what this special moment will look like for her. And get this—she’s going through it all while dealing with a divorce from her estranged husband, Kyle Martino. That’s right, folks. Eva made it clear that Kyle won’t be in the delivery room when their third child arrives.

At 34 years old and over 37 weeks pregnant, Eva opened up about the challenges she’s facing. "Birthing this time without a partner has made me get in my own head a lot about whether I’m strong enough to do this," she wrote. Birth, as we all know, is an emotional rollercoaster, and Eva was honest about her feelings. "Birth is so emotional, and so I knew early on that having Kyle there wasn’t going to feel right to me," she explained. It’s a big decision, and Eva is handling it with grace and honesty.

Why Eva Chose to Go Solo in the Delivery Room

Eva shared why she decided not to include Kyle, a former professional soccer player, in the upcoming birth. She described the decision as both "bittersweet" and "overwhelming." The couple, who have two children together—daughter Marlow, 5, and son Major, 3—announced their split back in November 2019. Eva explained the reasoning behind her choice: "Our intimacy level has totally changed now that we aren’t a couple, obviously, and in order to really let go and allow labor to progress (especially with a home birth), it’s so important to feel completely at ease in your body and support." It’s a powerful statement about the importance of comfort and trust during such a vulnerable time.

Building a Strong Support System

While Eva admitted she’s feeling anxious about not having the father of her baby in the delivery room, she’s found a way to make it work. She revealed her plan to surround herself with strong female energy during the birth. "I’ve realized that having a strong female energy present at my birth this time is going to bring that for me," she wrote. Her support team includes her female midwives, an awesome doula, and some incredible girlfriends who are all moms themselves. And guess what? Her kids will be there too! Eva is thrilled about the idea of her children witnessing the miracle of birth for the first time, hoping it leaves a lasting impression as they grow into adults.

Kyle’s Role After the Birth

Although Kyle won’t be present for the actual birth, Eva assured everyone he’ll meet his son right after the baby is born. "We both feel good about this decision," she added. Eva is focusing on embracing the power she’s felt during this pregnancy, despite the challenges. "Not having a partnership present at this birth feels totally different! It’s been taking a lot of intentional thought and work on myself as I near the birth experience to get out of my own fears and to focus on the power I have felt during this pregnancy," she continued.

Her strength and resilience are truly inspiring.
