She welcomed baby Bear with partner Liam Payne last year and now Cheryl has spoken out about life as a new mum.
The Fight For The Love singer, 34, has admitted for the first six months, she didn’t have time to do anything but devote her attention to her little one.
“If it got to one o’clock and I’d brushed my teeth I was winning,” she told The Mirror, as she revealed any beauty regime she once kept up went out the window when she became a parent.
She added that her whole body felt “ravaged” by pregnancy and her “whole being was different.” She lost some of her hair and she no longer has the time or energy to do her nails.
But she’s since found exercising has helped her feel fit and healthy again and more like her old self.
“My body is used to it, and I enjoy it,” she said of taking up exercise again after five months off.
“Not only for how I look, but also how I feel. Just having that one hour to myself to exercise while the baby was napping was heaven for me. I had that peace of mind, that freedom. He was sleeping regular nap times, so I’d just take the baby monitor into the room and exercise.”
However, Cheryl urged other mums not to feel under pressure to work out if they don’t feel like it, or to do it for “aesthetic reasons”.
