Kate Upton speaks out about motherhood
In several interviews, Upton has openly discussed how motherhood has changed her, particularly when it comes to having a daughter (Vivi) in today’s society. In an interview with Extra TV, she described how becoming a mom makes her even more aware of the things that young girls are taught by society. “It makes you want to lead by example,” she stated. Kate also disclosed that Vivi is a free spirit who enjoys dancing and living in the moment, and the qualities she insists come from her side of the family.From the red carpet to family lifeWhile the couple tends to be low-key, they did give their fans a glimpse of how their family operates when they showed up at the 2022 MLB All-Star Game red carpet by getting dressed in coordinating yellow. The appearance was special for Verlander, who said it was his most significant All-Star game appearance so far because he got to experience it with his wife and daughter.With baby Bellamy now along for the ride, it’s easy to see that for this celebrity pair, family isn’t a chapter in their book, but it’s the title page that appears to be most important.
