For the past few years, Moore and Goldsmith, 40, have been celebrating Halloween in full force with their three children.
In 2024, Gus wears a red dragon costume and Gus goes to work as a sanitation worker wearing his signature fluorescent vest. Meanwhile, Lou commemorated the event by wearing an orange costume with the words “First Halloween” written on it.

Now partnered with the anti-RSV drug Bayfortas, Moore is a fully committed mother to three children under the age of four.
“I know there are seasons in life, but this particular season and chapter is one I’m fully committed to,” the This Is Us alum says. “It’s also the greatest thing in the world.”
