Hilary Duff and her boyfriend Matthew Koma welcomed their daughter Banks just a few months ago, and she just shared an amazing video from moments after her birth.
“I’ve been wondering for a long time if I would ever share this video as it is extremely personal…. it was so absolutely lovely and rewarding(and shocking) that after giving birth to my baby girl we hugged …for the first time,” Hilary wrote. The video clearly shows the hug that Banks and Hilary share for the first time as mom and daughter.
“In my mind I like to believe that she was saying good job mom. Go team go. We did it. Together. Matt provided such a safe calm strength, my mommy and sissy were there to cheer me on, and of course my birth angels to make sure all was well and big brother (downstairs deep in legos). I cannot believe this day was only 5 months ago!! It seems like B has been here with us all along. The time is already going so fast..she tried avocado yesterday! Anyway… feeling blessed for this full hectic life and all the people in it. Happy 5 months Banks (oh and thanks for quitting colic) that was a doozy,” she added.

Anna Faris is detailing aspects of her current relationship with ex husband Chris Pratt, as well as how she found out about his intentions to propose to his fiancee Katherine Schwarzenegger.
The 42-year-old actress went on the Divorce Sucks! podcast and spoke about how she found out Chris was going to propose.
“Well, Chris and I had a long conversation earlier on about — our goal was to have group Thanksgiving dinners together and to be at that place. Do we do that sooner or later? Grudge-holding is not something that Chris and I do. So, we wanted to make sure, of course, that [son] Jack was happy, but that we were happy and supportive of each other and that we could have this fantasy idea of, do we all spend Christmas together? Do we all vacation together? How do we make sure that everybody that we love feels safe, and that we also respect the love we have for each other? So, he was so sweet, as he always is,” Anna said. “He called me, like, ‘So, I’m going to ask Katherine to marry me. I just wanted to give you a heads-up.’”
Her reaction? “I was like, ‘That’s awesome!’ and I told him that I was an ordained minister,” Anna responded.
She added, “Under all of these uncoupling circumstances, I think that we are so good and respectful towards each other, and I think there is so much kindness and love, and I know we want to get to that ultimate goal, and I know it sounds lame and optimistic, but that’s what I want.”
The Gifted star Jamie Chung has revealed that she is freezing her eggs to keep her options open to possibly have children in the future with her husband Bryan Greenberg.
“Here I am over a week ago at my doctors office getting an orientation/lesson on how to inject myself with growth hormones. One of the first major steps for egg retrieval. I’ve been stewing over the idea of freezing my eggs for a couple of years now, and decided to move forward with the process only just recently. I did my research on facilities and then it all boiled down to these deciding factors; I want options,” Jamie, 35, captioned a post on Instagram, revealing this news.
She continued, “I’m buying time. I’m unsure and scared and hopeful. I have the best life partner a person can ask for and I know I want to one day raise a child with Bryan. I’m just unsure when that will happen. And I realized that’s ok. It’s ok to be unsure when the time is right. And a lot of people have told me that ‘There is no right time. Just do it! What are you waiting for?! It’s the best thing to have ever happened to us!!’ And I believe it all but I’m going at the pace that’s right for me because I’m not ready just yet.”
