Erin Andrews is currently receiving an outpouring of support from NFL fans as she navigates through a challenging year both personally and professionally.

During a recent episode of her Calm Down podcast with Charissa Thompson, Andrews, 46, opened up about the struggles she’s been facing. The veteran NFL sideline reporter shared the emotional toll of balancing her role as a mother, her career, and managing her clothing line, WEAR by EA.

After welcoming her son Mack via surrogacy in the summer of 2023, following years of fertility struggles, Andrews talked candidly about the challenges of being a working mother. “It’s really hard, it really is. My better half works in the hockey world, and so his season is going on at the same time. This was a really, really hard year. I’m going to get emotional about it,” she said, showing the vulnerability that many working parents can relate to.

“The first year when [Mack] was a newborn, it was fine. It was like smell ya later and I really wasn’t really saying [that], but it was like, ‘OK, bye!’ We worked so hard to have Mack, and it took us forever to have him — and we faced a lot of loss, and he finally came,” Andrews added.

While managing everything on her own, the sportscaster had a really tough time dealing with multiple roles, all at a single time. After opening up about her untold battles, she has got her NFL fans thinking of her. However, she kept on working really hard to finally overcome her personal life challenges.

Erin Andrews Teams Up With AstraZeneca For Omen Cause

Erin Andrews described it as “really hard” to juggle her responsibilities. Especially with her husband, Jarret Stoll, who is also busy with his commitments in the hockey world.

However, Erin is collaborating with AstraZeneca on a national public health campaign called “Get Body Checked Against Cancer.” This initiative aims to empower individuals to take charge of their health by discussing cancer risk factors and the necessity of cancer screenings with their doctors.

The campaign aligns with Hockey Fights Cancer, the NHL, and NHLPA’s initiative supported by the V Foundation for Cancer Research.

Erin Andrews, a cancer survivor and advocate for screenings, emphasized the importance of proactive healthcare based on her own experience with cervical cancer. She is working alongside NHL players, coaches, and fans to promote awareness and encourage the hockey community.

As part of their partnership, they are releasing a limited-edition t-shirt called SCREEN, available on NHLshop.com and in the NHL Flagship Store in NYC. Proceeds will support the V Foundation for Cancer Research, which has already received a $500,000 donation from AstraZeneca.
