Emmy Rossum has kind of a crazy birth story for her daughter. During an appearance on "Live With Kelly and Ryan" on May 19, the "Shameless" star explained that she nearly had her nightmare scenario with the birth of her baby girl, Samantha. "I gave birth almost a year ago today in New York and went into labor and took an Uber to the hospital," she told the hosts, per Us Weekly. "My worst nightmare would be, I had this [mental] picture of my holding on [to the handle above the door] in the car with the baby coming out in the Uber." Can you even imagine?
Rossum joked that her Uber driver was "lovely and very conscientious," which is the opposite of what she wanted when heading to the hospital with contractions. "We were driving, and we were a couple of minutes away from the hospital, and I was fully in contractions, and I didn't realize I was actually nine centimeters dilated at that point, so real close," she explained. Luckily, the driver got her to the hospital safely, preventing her from giving birth in an Uber.
On her first Mother's Day, Rossum celebrated by sharing a series of adorable photos on Instagram. The actor shared that the first year was filled with "playing, crawling, eating, carrying pacifiers in mouths and holding hands." She also expressed how grateful she was to be Samantha's mom. How sweet!
