Just because they have money doesn’t mean life can’t be a challenge let’s take our hats off to some inspiring celebrity single moms.
Denise Richards, Hollywood actress & mom of 3.
Single mom to 3 girls, Denise Richards, is an admirable single mom. She not only has sole custody of her children with Charlie Sheen, who has a terrible history of drug & alcohol abuse, but she often looks after 2 of his other children from another marriage. How excellent is Denise?
Katie Holmes, Hollywood actress & mom of 1.
She was married to estranged ex-husband Tom Cruise, who hasn’t seen his daughter in years. She has been very candid about her struggles as a single mother and says, “Sometimes I feel great about myself, and sometimes I don’t.”
Gwyneth Paltrow, Hollywood actress & mom of 2.
Gwyneth Paltrow has two children with Chris Martin, frontman of Cold Play. They had a “conscious uncoupling” and harmoniously co-parent their two children and make their well-being their first priority.
Charlize Theron, Hollywood actress, and mom or 2.
Charlize Theron adopted two children. She was married when she adopted her son, but they got divorced. She later adopted another little girl and raises both her children as a single mother. She honestly says she never wished to be a single mom, but it happened.
Mary-Louise Parker, Hollywood actress, and mom of 2.
Mary-Louise was seven months pregnant when her son’s father and she split. She later also adopted a little girl as a single mother. She says, “A lot of children from traditional nuclear families have really unhappy childhoods, and they have dysfunctional, distant parents who don’t pay attention to them. Also, some people don’t plan on being single parents. It’s not like you’re sitting at home and thinking, ‘Wow, I’d really like to do this by myself. I’d love to wake up six times a night and change diapers and have nobody to help me. That’d be great!’ I certainly didn’t do that.”
Cheryl Crow, Singer, and mother of 2.
After battling breast cancer and her divorce from Lance Armstrong, Cheryl adopted two children. She has also adopted motherhood as the most important role in her life. Her kids are very much a part of her everyday life and even go with her on tour.
So many different situations, and so many different stories, but they all have one thing in common, they are all SINGLE MOTHERS. The Inspiring celebrity single moms.
