Becks then shared that the biggest change she experienced since becoming a mum was becoming more patient and appreciative of her mother.
“In the past, I would get impatient easily with my mum and those close to me. But since becoming a mum, I’ve started to see things from a different perspective. I see her struggles, and I cherish her even more. I’m thankful for all the small things she does for me now,” she said with a smile.
Becks also opened up about the stress of making her comeback.
“The stress doesn’t come from me worrying about my baby, because I know he is well taken care of. The stress stems from the expectations I have of myself. I only want to show everyone the best version of me, and that’s something I ask of myself as an actress. I worry I’m not in my best state yet. Like when it comes to my figure, or my state of mind — I haven’t fully returned to my ideal ‘working mode’,” she shared.
“It’s not easy, especially when your baby is still at such an adorable stage. It would definitely be hard to leave him,” empathised Sheila.
Rebecca then revealed an incident that happened to her at the Star Awards in April. The event marked her first on-screen appearance less than three months after giving birth to her son.
“I was actually quite excited. I hadn’t been out for a while, and I could doll up for the occasion. At the rehearsals, I remember asking you about the logistics of things because we had to prepare milk for our babies and all. So there were a lot of things to consider and to be nervous about,” said Becks to Sheila.
“But from the start, it was already difficult for me to find an outfit. I was no longer sample size. I couldn’t fit into the dresses [the stylists found] in the largest sizes. So my confidence was already at its lowest.”
“Right before I had to walk the red carpet, I heard someone say: “She looks like a big green apple walking around”. I really wanted to turn around and find out who said it, but I told myself not to get affected. To just take a deep breath, and walk the red carpet,” recalled Becks.
Rebecca later revealed she “had a huge crying session” to get over the whole incident.
“In that moment, I forgot I had just given birth and I really did not have to be so hard on myself. When I first joined showbiz, I received plenty of criticism on my figure, and I took a long time to accept myself. I’m not a very slim person and I don’t have the perfect body, but during Star Awards, I forgot all of that. I had to learn [to deal with it] from scratch again,” she said.
Well, we think Becks looks great as always and can definitely afford to be kinder to herself.
