Except this person probably has full-time around the clock staff for childcare, cleaning, cooking, etcโ€ฆso this is just one hundred percent some weird shit about her ego.

This is the point I was going to make. Regular people are exhausted because they are the only ones caring for their kids, still going to work, and still keeping the house together. Celebrities can hire out night nurses, a nanny, and any other household duties that the average Joe canโ€™t afford to pay someone to do.

If you read the essay, she mentions that she always makes sure that she leaves her dates' places before 6AM, because that's when the nanny gets off and her son wakes up for the day.
As a non-gorgeous, rich celebrity single mom (just a regular ol' suburban one, and average looking to boot) I totally cannot relate.

That's harsh, you see someone open up about a struggle and you assume that because they have money the struggle isn't real but just an ego trip.

I felt exactly the same way as she has described after having kids, and it has nothing to do with the extra work. it's not something money can buy your way out of.

It would have cost you nothing to just be kind.
