Celebrity mums’ hilarious confessions about parenthood

"How do I do it all? This is how." Cue photo of Reese Witherspoon napping.

Sure, they might have the glitz, the glamour and the bulging bank balances to boot, but these celebrity mums prove they’re completely relatable when it comes to parenthood.

From Pink to Reese Witherspoon to Tina Fey, these celeb mums tell it like it is.

And of course the inimitable Chrissy Teigen gets a mention for keeping it real. She’s the queen of real, after all.

Olivia Wilde

“I call this hairstyle, “keep the kid alive”. Products you’ll need: sweat, string cheese, diaper rash cream, chewed up crayon, snot, and an enthusiastic spritz of panic,” Olivia Wilde wrote on Instagram.

Pink

Pink: “My life was once whiskey, tears, and cigarettes… now it’s snot, tears, and the color of poop.”

Blake Lively with her wee tribe.

“Having a baby is just living in the constant unexpected,” said Blake Lively. “You never know when you’re gonna get crapped on or when you’re gonna get a big smile or when that smile immediately turns into hysterics. It might be like living with a drug addict.”

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon’s revelation: “How do I do it all- with 3 kids & a full time job? This is how. Me & every other mom. #Naptime”

Busy Philipps

Hands up who’s guilty of this confession via Busy Philipps?! “You know that thing where your 3 year old is dropping her nap but then passes out on the way to dinner so you have to hold her for 45 minutes & try to not drop chips and salsa on her head?? That happened to me last night. And aside from a few crumbs, her head stayed clean!”

Kristen Bell

Kristen Bell’s truth bomb: “In the age of social media, when you can edit your life in beautiful pictures. It’s important to remind moms that all of us are wearing yogurt and all of our hands smell like urine.”

Tina Fey

“You’re just like a human napkin for kids, like, they just wipe their face on you and stuff.” Tina Fey on motherhood.
