Hailee Steinfeld opens up about toughest motherhood lesson

Hailee Steinfeld is opening up about one of the biggest lessons she's learned since becoming a mother.

In a fan Q&A published on Friday through her newsletter community, Beau Society, the actress and singer shared how becoming a mother has shifted the way she thinks about self-image and the example she hopes to set for her daughter.

The Sinners actress and husband Josh Allen, announced the arrival of their baby girl on April 2.

During her Ask Me Anything session, one fan asked Steinfeld, “What's something your daughter has already taught you, even though she's still so little??”

“Where to start!" Steinfeld began in response. "One of the most unexpected things I've learned from my daughter is the importance of modeling unconditional self-love."

She further mentioned, “I'm obviously still learning what that looks like in practice, but during these early stages of motherhood, specifically with raising a daughter, I've realized that how I see myself is how she'll see herself. It's that simple.”

The actress and the Buffalo Bills quarterback shared news of their daughter's arrival in a Substack post titled "Special Delivery.”

“Our baby girl has arrived!!” Hailee Steinfeld wrote in the newsletter at the time. “We're feeling incredibly grateful and blessed and savouring these early moments. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes.”
