Keke Palmer Opens Up About Struggles Of Motherhood

Keke Palmer gave props to single parents in her latest Instagram update after welcoming her first child. The Nope star posted a video on March 3 to share how her first week of motherhood has been going and how the experience has increased her appreciation for those who do it on their own.  

“I just came on here to say, if you are a single parent, pull out your cape. As a matter of fact, clip your angel wings. Because I don’t know how it is you did it,” She began, leaning towards the camera wearing a grey and white striped top and grey square glasses. “And I really don’t want this to sound pander-y or something like this, because I know there are a million and one reasons why somebody wants to be a single parent or becomes a single parent. Maybe they lost somebody, maybe they don’t want to deal with somebody, maybe it’s a choice.” 

“But when it comes to raising a kid, I’ve already learned in these short few days that it takes a village. And sometimes that’s a privilege,” Palmer added. “And I just want anybody out there that’s a single parent that’s been doing this — friends of mine, people that I don’t know, family members of mine — [know that] I really am, in my heart — it brings tears to my eyes. I am just truly, profoundly impressed.”

The actress captioned the earnest video, “I ain’t gon’ lie, I’m gettin’ COOKED!”

As previously reported by Sis2Sis, Palmer shared the news of her son’s birth on Instagram on February 28. Along with a sweet carousel of photos of her newborn and boyfriend, Leodis “Leo” Andrellton Jackson and Darius Jackson, Palmer expressed her first thoughts after 48 hours of motherhood.
