She also opened up about being a mother and how she doesn’t think women should have to change who they are or how they dress to fit some sort of societal norm or expectation. “Tell me one reason why, just because you’re a mother, you need to wear a longer skirt,” she said. “No! I don’t believe in that. I really don’t.”

“How is it that people think of this idea? Why should you have to change who you are and how you feel just because you become a mother? I’m like, tell me why. Tell me one reason! I don’t believe in that. I don’t understand why.”

As far as Shayk and Cooper’s relationship goes now, co-parenting their daughter is now the top priority. “They love their little girl dearly and that’s not going to change no matter what,” a source told E! News. “They want what’s least disruptive for their baby.”
