Chelsea Clinton opened up about motherhood, and gushed about her “perfect” daughter Charlotte. As Gossip Cop previously reported, the 35-year-old welcomed her first child with husband, Marc Mezvinsky, in September.
“Marc and I are like, ‘What did we do before we were parents?'” Clinton told Elle for their May issue. “My whole life is reoriented around my daughter in the most blessed sense.” The first-time mom continued, “I now understand – this is something else that Marc and I talk about all the time – all of the enthusiastic, bombastically spectacular, wonderful things people say about their children, because we also feel and think all those things about Charlotte – that she is just the most remarkable little bubbly, perfect, chunky monkey creature ever.”
Clinton also talked about the importance of having female figures in political leadership roles. It’s been said that her mom, Hillary Clinton, will announce her candidacy for the 2016 Presidential Election this weekend. “When you ask about the importance of a woman president, absolutely it’s important, for, yes, symbolic reasons – symbols are important,” Clinton said, adding, “It is important who and what we choose to elevate, and to celebrate. And one of the core values in this country is that we are the land of equal opportunity, but when equal hasn’t yet included gender, there is a fundamental challenge there that, I believe, having our first woman president – whenever that is – will help resolve.”
