‘Sexiest Woman In The World’ Megan Fox Has A Refreshing Take On Pregnancy And Motherhood

By Caroline Schaeffer

With a resumé including once being dubbed FHM‘s “Sexiest Woman In The World” and star of the “Transformers” series, 28-year-old Megan Fox would not be the obvious choice for being a spokeswoman for mothers.

However, in an interview with Cosmo, the superstar, who has two children with actor husband Brian Austin Green, spoke about how her “role” as mother comes first. Newsbusters reports:

When [writer Laurie] Sandell asked if pregnancy was “hot or not?” Fox replied with “hot.” “You are creating a life inside you,” she said, “who will become a person who will change the course of history, no matter what they do.”

Continuing her praise of pregnancy, Fox told Sandell “there’s a power that comes with having a child” because “you’ve done something incredible that no man could ever do or understand.”

“I’m grateful for my career, but I also resent it because it takes me away from the thing I feel I’m meant to be doing,” she admitted. At another point, she disclosed, “Once you become a mother, especially a working mother, you feel like you can never give enough of yourself.”

Another issue Fox considered “hot”? Monogamy. “There’s no other option. You can’t be in a relationship without monogamy,” she expressed.

What a refreshing and unexpected take on motherhood and marriage coming from Hollywood. Fox’s commitment to her children and her marriage will pay dividends decades after her career is over.
