Just days before her 35th birthday, Rumer posed nude in an Instagram photo, reflecting on her body image in the caption.
Sharing that she had spent “so many years trying to shape and mold” her body into something she “thought was desirable,” the Dancing With the Stars champion celebrated that she is “a little softer and rounder and jiggly and different” after giving birth.
“That’s ok, more than ok it’s kind of amazing because I grew a person inside of it,” she wrote. “I know my body is still readjusting, but whatever shape it ends up in I am just grateful for all that it did and continues to do.”
Acknowledging her “ongoing process of transformation,” Rumer explained that she was “grateful for every twist and turn” of her postpartum journey.
“My breasts, might be bigger and perhaps ever so drifting downward but what a gift and privilege that they can feed and provide nourishment for my Lou,” she wrote. “They also make a fantastic pillow while we cosleep. My hips and tummy, now softer and rounder, cradle my daughter in safety, warmth, and love.”
