Blake Lively discusses how her daughters assist her in overcoming insecurities

Blake Lively admits that having children has made her feel “more in my skin.”

In a recent interview with Forbes, the Gossip Girl alum admitted that having three daughters changed her as a person.

“I think having children made me feel so much more comfortable in my own skin,” Lively says. “I’ve never felt more myself, at ease in my own body, or confident – not to say that I don’t have a million insecurities coming at me every day, but I just feel incredibly settled.”

“I just think that growing up, having kids, all of that made me feel like I only want to do things where I can have really meaningful collaborations and authorship,” Lively continues.

“I believe in really valuable collaborations, and that’s where I’m getting my fulfilment these days, and I’ve never been happier professionally,” the Age of Adeline actress adds.

With Ryan Reynolds, Lively has three children: James, 7, Inez, 5, and Betty, 2.
