Famous Moms Who Don’t Pretend to Be Perfect and Show Their Real Life

Being a mother is one of the most difficult tasks in the world. Motherhood makes you think of your child’s welfare first and superficial things like looking pretty or posing for the camera take a backseat. After all, when you have 3 hours of sleep and a whole lot of diapers to change – fashion isn’t something you focus on!

Khloe Kardashian was trolled for editing a picture of her 5 months old daughter. She posted a picture on social media that screamed artificiality and her fans were upset. In the age of airbrushing every little thing, we are losing touch with reality rapidly. This incident is a case in point. Natural is beautiful, even if it is not “perfect”. Honestly though, how many moms find the time to put on makeup or wear glamorous outfits?

Here are famous moms who keep it real:
