Cape Town — South African actress, Minnie Dlamini, showed off her beautiful mom body as she decided she will no longer conform to societies standards of beauty.
Minnie took to her Instagram timeline and uploaded an image of her posing in a bra and panty, and wrote a lengthy message acknowledging that she now accepts her body as it is, even more so after her pregnancy and the birth of her son, Netha Jones, who she shares with former husband Quinton Jones.
“The older I get the more I love my body!!! After having my son and seeing the amazing things my body can do, I have an unimaginable appreciation for it. My body is much more beautiful to me than it has ever been.” she said.
“The reality is things aren’t the same, but this is the youngest my body will ever be!!! I spent my 20s self conscious and obsessed with meeting societal standards and expectations of what my body should look like, and looking back I’m like “girl you were perfect and you missed it!” So I’ve decided to love my body now more than ever before!!!” she continued.
Minnie’s followers were in full support of her and her choice, taking to the comments to praise her and compliment her on her decision to be so vulnerable.
