Menounos shares her daughter with husband Keven Undergaro.
In September, the new mom celebrateddaughter Athenaturning 3 months old in anInstagram post,showing the little one’s face for the first time.
“3 months old today! Kev and I really want to keep her little face off social BUT no one ever saw her smile because she was too little when we shot the magazine cover,” she wrote. “Anyway, while she’s still little I figure I get this one post out as she LIGHTS up our day everyday and I hope she can light yours up to! We love her soooooo much we may explode!!!”
On anepisode ofHeal Squad, the new mom talked about her decision to share the sweet photo on social media.
“I posted for the first time so that everyone can see her face,” Menounos said, noting that she and her husband had previously discussed not sharing her photo.
“That picture that I posted of the three of us happened. I’m like, ‘Oh my god, she’s owning us.’ She’s in the middle, with her one hand on your chin and the other one on mine. It just happened and it was perfect,” she raved.
“In that picture, she’s 2½ months. That she’s smiling with us, looking up at the camera, it all added up,” Undergaro added.
Still, Menounos said she doesn’t plan to share her unless a “life-changing situation” presents itself. “I’m really going to try not to, for her sake.”
