Adriana Lima finds motherhood busy

25th August 2010

(Cover) - EN Fashion - Adriana Lima says the only “me time” she gets is when she has a wash.

The Victoria’s Secret model has nine-month-old daughter Valentina with her husband Marko Jarić, and took some time off work after her birth to concentrate on being a mother. She is still getting used to her new lifestyle, although she wouldn’t swap it for anything. Adriana says the biggest change is that she has so little time to spend on herself.

“Right now, the ‘me’ time is when I take a shower,” she explained. “There is no time for TV, no time for movies, no time for reading.”

Adriana managed to get back in shape after the birth by eating healthily and exercising. She keeps fit by boxing, training with former professional in the sport Michael Olajide Jr. The model likes to keep healthy, but hates to think some women feel pressured to look a certain way.

She is glad some of the designers showcased women with curvy figures during the Autumn/Winter 10 shows earlier this year, and can’t wait to get her hands on the new fashions.

“I was at the Louis Vuitton [Fall 2010] show, and I was really happy to see beautiful girls with big curves,” she told Fashion magazine. “Everybody has a different type of body, and I think you should embrace who you are. It’s not about if you’re curvy or have a boyish frame, it’s about how you feel in your own skin.” (C) Cover Media
