@dailymail: Hilary Swank has spoken out about the double standards faced by women who have children later in life after announcing she's expecting her third child at 52. Appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show, the actress said women face 'a lot of backlash' for having children later, while older fathers receive far less criticism. Swank, who welcomed twins with husband Philip Schneider in 2023 at 48, recalled being told she was 'too old' to become a mother. The Oscar winner has also offered words of encouragement to a fan worried about becoming a parent later in life, telling her: 'Things happen in their time, not ours.' #hilaryswank #celebrity #pregnancy

It's different for rich folks. A wealthy 52 and a poverty 52 aren't the same.

𝓔𝓵𝓵𝓪 🌚 :

As long as her and the baby are healthy, I don’t see why not 🤷‍♀️

Deirdre Mc Carthy :

im 54 I would give anything to feel a period cramp a pregnancy a labour..menopause sucks.. you go Hillary!!! BTW could I be a surrogate this age?

꧁♡𝕂𝓪𝔂𝓁𝓪♥꧂ :

My former employee hates the fact that she is 33 years old. Her dad is gone and her mom has dementia. She said it isn't fair her parents had her at a late age. It's selfish

Mohammed Asif :

52 ain't old.. 60 plus maybe

Lisa Pucci Delgado :

it's crazy that these people don't hit menopause or anything in their 50s I seen so many pregnancies in the '50s some in the 60s and it blows my mind

￴￴ ￴ ￴￴￴ ￴￴ :

52 bro

Katrina :

I had older parents and buried them both before my 32nd birthday it was selfish of them.

Hey! :

is that even possible

@ Uma_Marnie :

Congratulations my grandma was 58/59

syokissmau :

We are so bothered with other people's lives this days.

GIGI🎧🎶🔥🪭 :

Vintage_kitchen_witch :

I think its partly rich privilege. If you’re mega wealthy you can afford private healthcare, and most importantly you can make sure yoy’re kids will want for nothing and employ an army of carers.

Deirdre Mc Carthy :

men in their 70's populating but a woman who is a stunning healthy 50 something pregnant gets slated even though she knows it's high risk ..you go girl

Cyan :

The fact anyone thinks they have room to criticize or judge what someone else does with their body when will we learn ITS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS AND NOT IMPORTANT OTHER WAY MORE SERIOUS ISSUES ARE HAPPENING

Earthy🪾Aphrodite :

Man or woman.. it's not fair to the children.

Nila :

She’s wealthy she can stay home and be present parent and make sure they eat healthy buy them clothing and much more but a poor person depending on the country would be struggling with newborn and working full time and all that extra that comes with raising a child plus can’t afford the best food

Amy in Germany 🇩🇪🇺🇸 :

How?

𝐘𝐘𝐘 :

P :

Do people not understand how much of a gamble it is for the child at that age?

Meghan :

my only thought was it planned or unexpected. I feel if this was planned it was kinda selfish...ur going to be 70 when your child turns 18....I know no one is guaranteed tomorrow but still
