Former television personality and savvy entrepreneur shares her transformative fitness journey amongst coping with motherhood’s wonderful challenges. In this ever-changing routine, she reveals how her fitness orientation shifted following the birth of her second child.

“I had been an ardent follower of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), but post the arrival of my second bundle of joy, my fitness patterns needed re-evaluation. As an active mother, I pivoted towards exercises that emphasized stretching and strengthening. This led me to discover the world of barre and Pilates,” she shares.

Pregnancy often comes with a pressure to reclaim pre-pregnancy body shape. Speaking on her experience, she emphasizes that it is time to attune to one’s body rather than focusing on fitness goals. “During my pregnancies, I battled prolonged bouts of sickness and exhaustion, making it impossible to stick to intense workouts. Walking and keeping up with my toddler helped maintain my fitness levels,” she counters the often-stressed narrative.

With a massive following on digital platforms, she opines that social media became an empowering tool during her pregnancy. It enabled connections with others sharing similar experiences during sleepless nights or feeding time. Ultimately, she encourages the act of unfollowing or muting users who resort to bullying or negative comments, maintaining a positive environment.

Besides its physical benefits, she advocates the mental boon of fitness, especially for new mothers. “Parenthood can be taxing. A simple act like walking with a stroller or indulging in a change of scenery frees you from the emotional blues. It prompts you to get dressed and step out,” she advises.

When asked about staying rooted amidst fame, she credits her tight-knit friendship circle from her school days. “We grew through the different stages of life together, including experiencing motherhood simultaneously. They keep me grounded and humble,” she adds.

Endowed with a fresh-faced appeal, she spills her beauty secrets – taking diligent care of her naturally frizzy hair. Having developed a competent partnership with Remington, she vastly relies on their hair products. “With my work involving numerous photo shoots, the overuse of hair products is inevitable. Therefore, I lean towards styling tools causing minimal damage. The Remington Hydraluxe Pro products are ideal in this regard as they prevent heat damage,” she affirms.

With a newfound role as Remington’s UK haircare ambassador, she channels her insights into promoting their Hydraluxe Pro & Hydraluxe ranges.
