She claimed that having three girls has made her feel more confident both personally and professionally. "I think having children for me made me feel so much more in my skin," she stated at the time. "I never felt more myself or at ease in my own body or more confident - not to say that there aren't a bevy of insecurities coming at me a million times a day, but I just feel incredibly settled."
