Andrews, who is 47 years old, is not giving up on expanding her family. While Andrews knows that the numbers are against her, the NFL on FOX sideline reporter truly believes that her body can do it. She revealed on a recent episode of “Calm Down With Erin & Charissa” that she’s hoping for success and isn’t giving up on IVF.<\/p>\n

“I know what history says. It’s not great with producing eggs and the viability of your eggs” Andrews admitted.<\/p>\n
“There’s just some (expletive) in me that I’m like, watch, watch me do it. It’s like a weird addiction I have.”<\/p>\n
Her co-host and friend, Charissa Thompson, couldn’t be more supportive. Thompson admitted that Andrews is the kind of person that is going to try to do something until it’s made clear that it’s physically impossible for it to happen. And Andrews is definitely not at that point – yet, anyway.<\/p>\n
“It’s a blessing and a curse in your life, how competitive you are,” Thompson said on the April 14 episode, which is available on YouTube.<\/a><\/p>\n “You will not stop until someone makes you stop.”<\/p>\n The NFL world is extremely supportive of Andrews’ goal<\/p>\n Andrews, a fan favorite in the NFL world for years, has a ton of support as she continues to be so open about her mindset, her goals, her struggles and more.<\/p>\n “Superwoman,” George Kittle’s wife, Claire, wrote to Andrews.<\/p>\n “Such an amazing and beautiful example of friends supporting each other ! Needed this today,” one fan added.<\/p>\n “Erin, I love your honesty and vulnerability.

So many people feel shame around fertility issues. It\u2019s beautiful to watch you fight. Thank you for sharing your story and know that I am sending so much love and positive vibes to you and your family! \u2764\ufe0f,” one fan added.<\/p>\n Andrews is able to joke about it, too.<\/p>\n “I’m really in the fourth quarter,” she joked of her age when it comes to getting pregnant.<\/p>\n “I may be in OT.”<\/p>\n This story was originally published by The Spun<\/a> on Apr 15, 2026, where it first appeared in the NFL<\/a> section.
