Erin Andrews has been married for eight years. The longtime NFL sideline reporter married former NHL star Jarret Stoll, who played for the Los Angeles Kings, in 2017. The happy couple welcomed their first child into a the world, a son named Mack, in 2023.
Andrews and Stoll long struggled with fertility issues, before welcoming their first son into the world via surrogacy. It was years of struggle and pain.
“I’d call him and be like, ‘I’m in the drive-thru of McDonald’s again, having a sausage biscuit breakfast sandwich because we just got bad news,” Andrews said of her family struggle.
“It was 10 years of (expletive).”
Andrews broke down crying before her son was born.
“I just could not stop crying,” she said. “(Mack) was our golden embryo. He was our last hope.”

Andrews and Stoll have a happy marriage, residing in California, though things get quite busy during football season.
Recently, Andrews and her “Calm Down” podcast co-host, Charissa Thompson, opened up about the one rule they choose to follow in their relationships.
No PDA.
Andrews is not a fan of PDA, she’s made clear to her husband
Andrews, 47, has made it clear that she is no fan of public displays of affection.
“I’m not knocking the people that do show PDA. I just think I’m like, I’m good,” she said.
“I also think (my husband) would know I was up to something (if we did PDA). He’d be like, what’s happening here?”
To each their own, of course.
Andrews and the rest of the NFL world will be in action during Week 18 of the regular season on Sunday.
