How did the Gilded Age actress hide her pregnancy during shoot?
Carrie Coon was supposedly heavily pregnant with her second child, a daughter, during the shoot of The Gilded Age.
In The Gilded Age, the actress played the role of Bertha Russell, the ambitious and social-climbing wife of a self-made railroad tycoon, who was also a controlling mother of two older children. She herself was hiding her real-life pregnancy from the screen at the time.
Coon, who portrayed a showy Bertha flaunting her wealth, donned intricately corseted costumes for the show. In the early months of filming, the actress was able to get into the costumes as they were. But as her pregnancy progressed, she had to put strings on the back of all of them. She was also given dazzling capes during the latter part of filming to hide her pregnancy.
According to Coon, who was nearly eight months pregnant by the end of filming, the costume department did an amazing job of hiding her pregnancy and no one in production made an issue around it.
Coon gave birth to her second child, a daughter, in the summer of 2021.
