But first, she had to explain the reason behind the little boy’s full name.
Apparently, August is the month when Mandy found out her baby, who was by then growing inside her belly, was going to be a boy.
And then, August is also her partner’s birth month so what better way to honour the love of her life?
“It was last August when @taylordawesgoldsmith and I found out we were having a boy (it’s also Taylor’s birth month) and we always loved the name... so it was settled very early on in our book,” the celebrity said in an Instagram post.
Gus was born on February 23, 2021.
