“This whole thing has taught me that motherhood has a wealth of definitions and identities. There’s no one way to be a mum or one way to be a ‘good’ mum,” the star has previously commented to People on parenthood.

After her meteoric rise to fame thanks to My Girl and My Girl 2, Anna stepped away from the spotlight to study International Studies at the University of Chicago.

Way back when! Anna rose to fame playing Vada Sultenfuss alongside Macaulay Culkin in 1991’s My Girl.

“In adolescence, you start to get awkward and people don’t know what box to put you in,” she said of her decision to quit acting.

“I wasn’t getting work throughout high school and, yet, I still felt the pressure of wanting to get work, so it just became the source of all my darkness.”

But she eventually made a comeback with small gigs on shows like 30 Rock, Law & Order and Cupid before landing her standout role as the Vice President’s Chief of Staff Amy Brookheimer in the hugely popular Veep*.

Congratulations to Anna on her beautiful baby news!

The actress and husband Shaun So are already the proud parents to a two-year-old daughter.
