Mothers That Rock by Dunja

Stella McCartney with her husband Alasdhair Willis going out of the Ritz Hotel in Paris.

Over the years, as a model, I did quite a bit of work with the amazing mother and businesswoman Stella McCartney. I admired her before I met her but the level of admiration truly shot up after spending time around her. Once we had to work at her gorgeous house in Notting Hill and her little girl was at home at the time.  I loved observing how Stella managed to balance motherhood and work by involving her daughter in the work we were doing and at one point sweetly noticing that her daughter’s fingernails had gotten too long and needed a cut.  When we were in the office she used to have her baby with her so she could breastfeed and also had the same rule for those working for her. Staff could even bring their pets to the office! This is one mum that truly got the balance just right!
