Maren Morris is embracing her new curves

Instead of trying to get back into shape, Maren Morris is sharing her newfound love for her body after giving birth to her son, Hayes. In an Instagram post, the "My Church" singer pays tribute to her "badass" body. She writes, "[I] am never saying 'trying to get my body back' again. No one took it, I didn't lose it like a set of keys. The pressure we put on mothers to 'snap back' is insurmountable and deeply troublesome. You are and always were a f***ing badass. And yeah, I'm proud."

The outspoken singer and Grammy Award winner is known for speaking her truth (via Glamour). Morris has spoken honestly about C-sections, judgy moms, and postpartum depression, per US Weekly. And new moms shouldn't feel pressured to "erase any evidence" that they had a baby, she told People. "It's like, 'I did something that half the population can't do.' So I think that's pretty f***ing rad," Morris said to reporters in April 2021, via People.
