Over a year into raising her son, Jack Blues Bieber, Hailey Bieber reflected on her parenting journey in an interview with GQ. She told the outlet that motherhood is something you learn by doing.
“I don’t think there’s anything someone can tell you about it that will ever, ever, ever prepare you until you do it yourself,” she said. The model, who has spoken about her hopes to expand her family, added, “But I feel much more prepared to do it again, as opposed to how not prepared I felt doing it for the first time. And I think for me personally, there’s so much unknown to it, but so much happens and so much changes and you evolve in a totally different way that you would never be able to prepare for until you do it.”
Jack has fundamentally changed her priorities, she added. When asked about her day-to-day now, she said, “It really depends, but a typical day at home for me is I get up with my son, hit a workout as much as I can. I’ve become a lot more of a homebody than I used to be. And I think when you have a child, that happens, at least it did for me. It definitely made me have so much less FOMO. And I also think getting older does that too. I have a lot of friends who don’t even have kids that feel the same way. I just don’t feel like I’m really missing out on much anymore.
“The other night I was at dinner with my best friend and we were supposed to go somewhere after the dinner and it got canceled, and we both were like: Yes. I was so not mad to go home and turn on a show and just be cozy in bed. And I am so happy with that now, because I used to be a person where I was like, I want to go out to dinner every night and I don’t want to skip plans. And now I’m just a lot more fulfilled with being cozy and being in my space and recharging and energizing in that way. And then also I just love to spend time with my son too. He’s growing so fast and it’s gone by so fast, and it starts to become more and more real how much you want to soak up that time.”
Hailey and her husband, Justin, are figuring out as they go how best to raise Jack, considering their level of fame. “We’re just taking it a day at a time,” she said. “We both feel very protective of our son and I don’t think that’s ever going to change, but our life is our life and it is really public, so I think we’re just going to cross every bridge that we need to when we get there. But as of right now, I feel really comfortable about the way we are sharing things and not sharing things.”
