Last December, Erin told PEOPLE that she and Ben are trying to raise their daughters out of the spotlight in an effort to give them the type of childhood they had.
“We want to keep Helen away from screens until it’s absolutely impossible,” she said at the time of their first daughter, who is now 3. “She plays outside a lot. That’s the goal. That’s how we grew up and we both had a magical childhood.”
