Shannen Doherty helped Michelle Gellar's children with homeschooling
Gellar said that Doherty not only provided a safe space for her children to play and explore but also helped them with their online schooling and planned fun activities for them.
“You gave them adventures and just, freedom. And I can never repay that because that was such a difficult time and so seeing my kids that happy and giving me a break," she said.
"People don’t know this, but Shannen sat there sometimes while they were on Zoom school and helped them and we would have blackouts and she would plan adventures," Gellar added.
“It was such a special time. And while that time period was so stressful and I never want to repeat that, I never want homeschooling again, there are times where I miss that slow life and just being able to be like that and having your kids spend that time with you too, right?,” she continued.
Sarah Michelle Gellar’s hilarious mom moment at a Los Angeles Chargers game
Gellar had a fun time with her children when she attended a Los Angeles Chargers game with her son Rocky last month and had a relatable mom moment when he got a little too carried away on the jumbotron.
In a viral video on TikTok, Gellar and her son were shown on the big screen and Rocky decided to show off his dance moves.
He started by waving his hands in the air, then proceeded to thrust his hips back and forth. Gellar quickly pulled him down and scolded him while rolling her eyes and shaking her head.
