Demi Moore said Tom Cruise was “embarrassed” by her pregnancy while filming A Few Good Men.

Demi Moore said her “A Few Good Men” co-star Tom Cruise was “embarrassed” by her heavy pregnancy while working on the 1992 legal drama.
During a Q&A at the New Yorker Festival on Saturday, the actress shared that she was about eight months pregnant with her daughter, Scout, 34, when she first posed with Cruise and director Rob Reiner before filming.
“I think Tom was very embarrassed,” Moore said He said to all the people. “I actually felt good about it. I was moving though, right? But I could tell he felt it was a bit awkward.”
The “Substance” star, 62, said Cruise, 63, was also uncomfortable with the fact that few actresses at the time had children because of the pressures of choosing between being a mother or having a career.
“It’s one of the many things, to me, that felt illogical,” she said of the choice women face. “So I challenged that to say, you know, why not? Why can’t you have both?”
“But with that, I think it came with a lot of pressure that I put on myself, to some extent, to prove that it was possible,” she continued.
Moore said she was particularly hard on herself when it came to fitness for the film — in which she played a lawyer in the Navy’s Department of Internal Affairs — and began working out even before Scout was born.
“I was going to be in uniform, and I probably over-anticipated that and started working out and trying to get in shape even before she was born,” Moore said.
She continued: “I did a two-and-a-half-hour walk the day my water broke. I biked 24 miles, then I was dancing at a reggae club – which is why she came two-and-a-half weeks early.”
A rep for Cruise did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
