Lara under fire

Oh god guys, the mother police is rattling at the gates of Lara Stone's house. Because what is the case, in an interview with Sunday Times Style magazine she said that she actually found her pregnancy to be a pretty terrible process. “It was frightening.” After just ten weeks, she had to make the switch to maternity clothes and could no longer work. The fear that the pregnancy would affect her body so much that she could never work again was quite large, and moreover unfounded. Because about a year after the birth of son Alfred, she scored a contract as the face of L’Oréal, so all's well that ends well.

You would think. Because a number of women with too much time on their hands are now getting upset about the fact that Lara found pregnancy hell, while being pregnant should actually be the most beautiful thing there is. They think so. But in all that babble about the most beautiful 9 months of your life, there is damn little attention for the discomforts and torments that come with it. Says someone who has never given birth, so what do I know about it, but still. Anyway, I find it brave and honest of Mrs. Stone, there are surely enough women who think or have thought the same. And besides, a contract with Calvin Klein was surely higher on the wish list than a contract with Prénatal. Just saying.
