She gave birth to her first child, a son, almost a year ago, and has previously branded the pressure the lose baby weight quickly as ‘bizarre’.

 

Now, actress Olivia Wilde has followed up on her comments by sharing her refreshingly honest thoughts on her post-baby body.

 

Opening up during an interview with Shape magazine, the 31-year-old described her body as looking like “a deflated pool toy”.

 

“After giving birth, I joined the ranks of millions of new mothers when I moaned, ‘Why do I still look pregnant? Is there another one stuck in there?’” she told the publication.

 

Olivia, who welcomed son Otis with her actor fiancé Jason Sudeikis, also urged readers not to take the amazing photos of her in the magazine all too seriously.

 

 

“The photos of me in this magazine have been generously constructed to show my best angles and, I assure you, good lighting has been warmly embraced,” she said, adding, “The truth is, I’m a mother, and I look like one.”

 

Olivia wowed everyone with her first photo shoot after giving birth, by breastfeeding her son in one of the candid shots.

 

We love the star’s refreshingly honest approach to motherhood and all that it entails. She looks amazing – lighting or lack thereof!
