The actress shares two children with husband Marc Silverstein and has given many glimpses into their family life over the years.

The Dawson’s Creek alum became a mom in 2008 when Cricket arrived. Birdie was born five years later.

The This Will Only Hurt a Little author has since tried her best to be a positive example to the siblings.

“I’m very careful about how I talk about myself in the home, to myself and to my husband,” the Illinois native exclusively told Us Weekly in April 2018. “The things I say privately in the home are always being heard by our kids. So I’m never weird about wearing a bikini or showing my body off. I try to empower my own self in front of my [children]. That’s the best I can do.”

While the Cougar Town alum said that she has it “made” as a working mom, her little ones are “not interested” in her work.

“My kids literally don’t care about what I do,” Philipps exclusively told Us in March 2020. “They both know that [Dawson’s Creek is] where Michelle [Williams] and I met. They understand that I was on that TV show. … I don’t think [they’re] interested.”

When Birdie watched Freaks and Geeks nine months later, the then-preteen called the former Busy Tonight host “weird.”

Philipps explained, “[Birdie’s] kind of like, ‘Your voice is really deep, and it doesn’t even look like you. You look like me.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, I was a kid, obviously.’”

The following month, the Girls5Eva star told her “Busy Philipps Is Doing Her Best” podcast listeners that her eldest child identifies as gay and prefers they/them pronouns.

“Birdie told us at 10 years old and we immediately … I mean, obviously, I knew that Birdie knew,” Philipps explained in January 2021.

The ER alum brought Birdie to a Pride parade in June 2021, gushing via Instagram, “Today is the start of PRIDE MONTH. I have so much pride for this kid and everything they are and do!”

News broke the following month that Birdie would be following in their mom’s acting footsteps with a non-binary role in Gloria Calderón Kellett‘s With Love. Philipps tweeted the announcement in July 2021, writing, “This just made me cry.”
