Being in a position of mass media exposure as the wife of the baddest man on the planet can empower a lot of women to see themselves as beautiful as they "fat ass up" with a baby. I say it that way because some people disrespect the process in that way. It's not the runway model look... the belly is big... blah blah blah... but it's nature... & it's a miracle... & it's beautiful... & that's what her pictures show.
Now all that said... I don't know the first thing about her motivations. Maybe she is just an attention hungry diva who wants validation... (as you are implying) but I didn't see it that way at all. I saw it as a prominent figure in social media using her status to empower other pregnant ladies to see themselves as beautiful. Meanwhile she gets some very eligant pictures of herself in the process which will give her a smile as she seez how beautiful pregnancy can be. The same thing she's offering to anyone else who takes in the pictures empowers her as well... that's just obvious... doesn't mean she'z evil for getting something personally out of something that will help others as well.
Last thing on my agenda today I thought I'd be discussing... cue this one up. lol...
