Busy Philipps is currently trying to manage the responsibilities that come with juggling a marriage and adding new members to the family at the same time. According to People magazine, the 39-year-old actor and host of E!’s 'Busy Tonight' opened up to Parents Magazine about her 11-year marriage to producer husband Marc Silverstein.

During the interview, Philipps spoke about the time her husband was not fully on board the parenting train, and how he wasn’t initially the most supportive parent after they welcomed their first daughter Birdie Leigh, who is 10 years old now. "He was not understanding how to be a dad and, in fact, didn’t try. I was parenting by myself," Philipps recalled. "When I told him I wanted to have a second child, he said, 'Fine, but it’s all on you.' That was so heartbreaking."
