British supermodel Adwoa Aboah became a mother as she welcomed a daughter in 2024.
The supermodel got candid about pregnancy, motherhood and postpartum struggled in a recent interview with The London Standard.
She described the feeling of becoming a mother as “It kind of feels like drowning”.
The model explained her emotions and struggles after delivering her daughter, who she shares with partner Daniel Wheatley.
“Postpartum is no joke”, she added.
“We can never really do anything right”, she continued, “Like, you choose not to have a baby, that’s weird. You choose not to have a partner, that’s weird.”,
Speaking of the struggles of becoming a mother and managing finances, she said “I’ve got a mortgage to pay off and I’m self-employed. There’s no one paying for my maternity [leave]. I have to work”.
Adwoa also praised women for their “superpowers” and said she is even more adamant now that women are “superior”.
Adwoa was born to a Ghanaian father and a English mother in 1992.
