Hailey Bieber Shuts Down the “Bounce-Back” Myth After Baby Jack’s Birth
Jude Telfort Jr. In a powerful and personal new interview, Hailey Bieber is speaking out against the pressure on women to “bounce back” after childbirth. Following the August 2024 birth of her son, Jack Blues, the model and entrepreneur opened up about the lasting physical and emotional changes she’s experienced — and why she’s not trying to go back to her pre-pregnancy body.
“Back where?” Bieber asks. “My hips are wider, my boobs are actually bigger than they were before. They did not go back… and great, I’ll take it, but it’s not the same body that it was before.” Her honest perspective sheds light on the often-overlooked realities of postpartum life, including body dysmorphia and the emotional rollercoaster that follows childbirth.
Bieber also touched on the online negativity and rumors that made the transition even harder, highlighting how public scrutiny can intensify an already vulnerable time. By speaking out, she’s joining a wave of high-profile moms — including Lindsay Lohan and Ashley Tisdale — who are rejecting toxic expectations and embracing authenticity.
Her message is clear: motherhood is a transformation, not a return to the past. And women deserve grace, not pressure.
