Michelle has previously expressed her frustration with the invasive questioning women face regarding motherhood, often without knowledge of their personal circumstances. Speaking to the Mirror, she stated: “It’s horrible. People don’t know if we’re trying.
“They don’t know the background of what’s happening. In this day and age, you shouldn’t be asking questions like that,” and added, “I’m asked purely because I’m a woman. I’m immune to it now – it’s like a reaction, and as soon as I hear it I brush it off as it’s no one else’s business.”
