Shilpa Shetty on becoming mother to daughter Samisha at age 45: I don’t care about people’s judgements on me

Shilpa Shetty along with husband Raj Kundra had welcomed their second child, a daughter on February 15, 2020. The couple opted for surrogacy and welcomed a baby girl, who they have named ‘Samisha Shetty Kundra’.

During her chat with Neha Dhupia on her show  No Filter Neha, Shilpa Shetty shared that she had a few meltdowns when her first born, Viaan was born but now she feels motherhood is “like a cake walk”.

“I remember I did have a few meltdowns after Viaan because when you’re this first time mom, it’s very daunting and it just hits you. So it was difficult the first time around but now I feel it’s like a cake walk. #Guts to me, I am 45 and I’ve had another child. I’ll be 50 and my child is 5” she said.

Shilpa also opened up about turning mother at the age of 45 as she said, 

“I don’t care to pay too much attention for other people’s opinions and judgments on me because it’s really not their place. I am doing my best as a mother. However people perceive me to be, I really want to bring my child up the way my parents brought us up. The only difference is obviously we were brought up in a smaller home with lot lesser in terms of facilities but the same amount of love, if not more.”

The supermom also adds that her husband Raj is ‘the wind beneath her wings’ and says that he is an elaborate part of bringing up the kids.
