Jennifer Lawrence makes candid confession on why she's getting 'boob job' after having baby
Jennifer Lawrence recently opened up about her experiences with motherhood and body image after the birth of her second child. In a refreshingly honest interview with The New Yorker, the Academy Award-winning actress revealed that she’s considering cosmetic surgery to help her body "bounce back" after having her second son, who is believed to be named Louie.
The star, who is known for her candid nature, admitted that her second pregnancy didn't leave her feeling the same way as her first.
Lawrence, who welcomed her first child Cy with husband Cooke Maroney, felt that her body recovered quite well after that pregnancy. However, things didn’t go as smoothly the second time around. "Second one, nothing bounced back," she confessed, highlighting the differences between her two experiences as a mother.
Lawrence shared that her decision to explore surgery comes partly because of her professional obligations, such as an upcoming nude scene in a film later this year. However, she emphasized that even without the spotlight, she would still be considering the option.
Motherhood and career intersect for Jennifer Lawrence
While Lawrence’s thoughts on surgery have garnered attention, her openness about the challenges of motherhood has also made waves. The actress, who is currently starring in more maternal roles, recently shared her personal connection to her character in Die My Love, where she portrays a new mother battling post-partum depression and psychosis.
In an interview at the Cannes Film Festival, she shared that her own experience with motherhood made her better understand the isolating nature of post-partum struggles.
Despite the tough moments, Lawrence says becoming a mother has deeply influenced her, both personally and creatively. "They’ve changed my life, obviously, for the best and they’ve changed me creatively," she told Variety. This shift has allowed her to approach her acting career in a new way, and she recommends parenthood for anyone looking to enhance their craft.
The actress also discussed how her relationship with Cooke Maroney, whom she married in 2019, has played a significant role in shaping her life as a mother.
Jennifer Lawrence and family life
Lawrence and her husband Cooke Maroney, a New York art dealer, share two children. The couple met in 2018 through mutual friends and were married the following year.
Their family life has become an important part of their public personas, and Lawrence’s fans have appreciated her honesty about the ups and downs of motherhood. Though she continues to pursue her acting career, Lawrence has shown that her role as a mother is just as significant in shaping who she is today.
