Vicky Pattison's Candid Confession on 'Motherhood': Feeling the Pressure to 'Become a Mom,' Do You Relate?
Vicky Pattison's candid confession about the 'suffocating' pressure to become a mother and having 'big questions' about motherhood truly resonated with me. Let's discuss her story, shared as she graced the cover of Women's Health, and how it might strike a chord with us. 😥

Hello everyone! Today, I want to talk about the story of a truly candid and brave woman.
Recently, Vicky Pattison, well-known as a star of 'Strictly,' captured everyone's attention as she appeared on the cover of 'Women's Health UK.' In an interview, the 37-year-old honestly shared her thoughts on 'motherhood.'
'Motherhood,' Was It Really What I Dreamed Of?
Vicky Pattison confessed that shortly after getting married, she began feeling 'suffocating' pressure from those around her to 'have a baby.' 😮 She revealed that she has 'big questions about motherhood,' a sentiment many women can likely relate to. Especially for women who have worked hard to build their careers over a long period, 'becoming a mother' can sometimes become an unexpected source of worry.
According to the interview, she stated that she also values her professional achievements because 'she has worked too hard for too long to be successful in life.' Her story seems to make us reconsider the societal norm that 'one should naturally have children after marriage.'
A Life Focused on 'Myself,' and the Role of 'Mother'
Vicky Pattison married her long-time partner, Ercan Ramadan, last summer. 💍 While she received many blessings for this new beginning, she also began deeply contemplating 'parenthood.' Her honest confession serves as a reminder that having a child is not solely about joy but is a significant decision that brings immense changes to a person's life.
Perhaps we all have our own pace and direction in life. Some, like Vicky Pattison, may prioritize their careers, while others may pursue different important values. The role of 'mother' is just one facet of life; it shouldn't necessarily be bestowed upon or forced upon everyone, in my opinion.
