Whether starring in the latest movie hit or creating the next hit single, these famous women are finding time for parenting in their schedule. And these famous ladies gave birth to their first child before the age of 25.
There are few things that people condemn more than motherhood. And motherhood at an early age? It can provoke even more side looks and condemning comments. But no matter how old you are when you became a mother, you can take serious inspiration from famous women who gave birth to their first child before the age of 25.
Despite the comments you get when you’re a young mom, having a baby in your early 20s is not uncommon. Although the average age of first-borns has risen since 2000, that number is still in the 20s.
But that still doesn't make the status of a young mother exempt from everyone's criticism and advice. It is suggested that the longer you wait for motherhood to begin, the better your chances of education and career advancement. Sure, it makes sense, but we firmly believe that every mom, no matter how old she is, is capable of achieving the career and education she wants. In fact, being a young mom can mean you’re even more determined to succeed, especially when your child’s little eyes are watching you closely.
Some of these famous women succeeded in this even before they became mothers, but that did not stop them from continuing to grow, work hard and make their dreams come true. Below, therefore, check out 5 famous women who became mothers early and proved that you don’t have to give up on your dreams to be a good parent.
Sofia Vergara
Not only did Sofia Vergara become a mother to her son Manolo when she was just 19, but she also became a single parent at the age of 21. For her, one of the benefits of early motherhood is that she had the energy to do and achieve everything she envisioned.
She used this to her advantage, and she put all her efforts into acting and educating Manolo in a way that he would never miss anything. He is now a successful 30-year-old, and when people compliment this 49-year-old actress for her son, she says all the sacrifices she has made for him have been worth it.
Victoria Beckham
Although 47-year-old Victoria Beckham is a prestigious designer with numerous career achievements that she can be proud of, for her being a mother is the greatest achievement in her life. Victoria gave birth to her first child, a son Brooklyn when she was just 24 and proved that starting a family at a young age is not always a bad idea.
Reese Witherspoon
Reese Witherspoon revealed in an interview that she was terrified when she became the parent of her daughter Ava. At age 23, she had no idea how to reconcile work and motherhood: "I was like any other mom trying to figure it out." Today, Ava is a 22-year-old model, and the 46-year-old actress and Oscar winner believes every sacrifice she made as a parent was worth it.
Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner has always wanted to be a young mom, and she did. She welcomed her daughter Stormi with her partner Travis Scott when she was just 20 and didn’t care what everyone else would think about it. "This is what I want to do, and whether others accept it or not, I'm fine with any outcome."
Adele
The famous singer Adele suffered from postpartum depression when she gave birth to a son Angelo at the age of 24. At the time, even though she loved her baby, she hated being a mom. What helped Adele get through this difficult period was the afternoon she set aside for herself once a week, and she began to talk openly with her friends about her feelings. Today, the 33-year-old singer looks better than ever and enjoys a successful career, but also motherhood.
