Meghan Trainor and Daryl Sabara quietly welcomed their third child, daughter Mikey Moon Trainor, through a surrogate and revealed the news with a heartfelt Instagram post that explains why surrogacy was their safest path to grow the family.
Meghan Trainor and Daryl Sabara are now outnumbered at home. The couple welcomed daughter Mikey Moon Trainor via surrogate, the singer revealed in an Instagram post late Tuesday night, pushing their growing family to three kids under age five.
The announcement post shows hospital-room snuggles, at-home swaddle shots and big brothers Riley (3) and Barry (2) gently kissing their sister’s forehead. Trainor captions the gallery: “Our baby girl Mikey Moon Trainor has finally made it to the world thanks to our incredible, superwoman surrogate.”
She continues, “We are forever grateful to all the doctors, nurses, teams who made this dream possible. We had endless conversations with our doctors in this journey and this was the safest way for us to be able to continue growing our family.”
Why Surrogacy Became the Safest Option
Trainor has spoken candidly about the traumatic delivery of her second son, Barry, in July 2023. Complications included a TMZ-reported emergency C-section and post-partum anxiety that kept her in therapy for months. In interviews last year she admitted she “couldn’t imagine risking another pregnancy.”
By choosing gestational surrogacy—using the couple’s own embryo—the pair sidestepped medical risk while still giving siblings Riley and Barry a full-blood sister. Trainor writes that sons picked the whimsical middle name Moon themselves, a nod to the family’s obsession with bedtime lullabies about the night sky.
Inside the Name Mikey Moon
Pop-culture superfites clocked the subtle tribute: Meghan’s 2014 smash “Me Too” features the line “I thank God every day that I woke up feelin’ this way”—a lyric she has said she wants her kids to belt in the mirror. Mikey keeps the self-love motif alive, while Moon supplies the celestial thread running through Trainor’s last two albums.
What This Means for Trainor’s Career Calendar
Sources close to the singer tell TMZ her Las Vegas residency dates remain locked for April 2026; production rehearsals start in March, giving her an eight-week maternity window. The set list, already trimmed to 90 minutes, now includes a lullaby mash-up dedicated to Mikey Moon.
Hollywood’s Growing Surrogacy Wave
Trainor joins a string of A-listers—Nick Jonas & Priyanka Chopra, Rebel Wilson, and Anderson Cooper—who welcomed babies via surrogate in the past 18 months. Industry statisticians note a 34% uptick in gestational-carrier births among celebrities since 2022, driven by career timing, health precautions and fertility advances.
Unlike previous generations who hid surrogates in fine print, today’s stars are broadcasting the process, normalizing family-building alternatives for millions of followers.
Next Chapter for the Sabara-Trainor Household
With three kids under four, Meghan and Daryl are officially in zone-defense mode. They recently upsized to a eight-bedroom Mediterranean-style spread in Encino, complete with a recording booth so Trainor can cut vocals during nap-time.
And if her Instagram caption is any clue—“We are going to enjoy our family time now, love you all”—don’t expect a full-court press promo cycle. For once, the Grammy winner is choosing lullabies over late-night TV, and fans are here for it.
