Lami Phillips is
certainly not your everyday kind of act. At least, she is not in the news
regularly for the wrong reasons like a number of her lady counterparts on the
beat scene.
Lami in the photo
posted on Instagram, accompanied it with a candid caption about not having to
keep up false appearances.
She wrote, "So .. here’s a no filter: no makeup post
delivery picture .. let’s be honest .. no
Lami after giving birth to her second daughter
matter how many times you give
birth.. no matter how many times the doctor tells you that you’ll look 6 months
pregnant for about 6 months (on average) , nothing prepares you for your post
delivery body.
Everyone talks about this mysterious SnapBack but I think that the
first three months after the delivery are similar to the first three months of
pregnancy. You spend the time trying to regroup.. mind , body and soul. It’s a
job nobody can help with. Even if you rush on the outward appearance.. your
soul still needs to go at it’s own pace. I really could slap make up on and
throw out some inspiring quote and wear some outfit that’s says “IM BACK!” ..
but today I’m just hugging all women and saying … ” travel your journey.. at
your own pace” It occurred to me today .. that being myself is my gift.
Yes I sing, act.. write etc. but I believe that when I am myself.. I
inadvertently give others permission to do the same. I just got tired of The
Whole pretense you know.. we all act like we have our ducks in a row . Truth is
we are all just trying to be better. Social media is usually utilized as a
means to show off.. and put the best package of yourself forward. I just want
to be me.. however that comes across and whatever that means. #LamiLIVING."
Lami Phillips has
been married to Labo Gbadamosi for 12 years and they have a daughter, Isabel.
