The question "How are you feeling?" is often just answered with "good" - no matter in which condition the recipient is actually. The pregnant model Ashley Graham now found a more detailed - and more creative - response in the show "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon". "I feel big and responsible," said the 32-year-old.
"Every day is like a science fiction movie," she joked. It's as if a small alien has taken over her stomach - apparently a very active little alien: "I swear he's on a treadmill and one day he'll just run out of me," Graham said. At least that's what she hopes.
On the show, Graham also talked about her "very untraditional baby shower" - for example, her guests could have had their tattoos or piercings stung. The model also apparently thought of other families at the party: "We also had rompers that everyone could decorate, and we gave them to mothers in need," Graham said. "So it was very special."
Quite relaxed, Graham could not handle her pregnancy in the beginning. She felt alone, she told Vogue recently. "I felt like I did not have anyone to talk to." None of her friends had been in a relationship, let alone pregnant. Her stylist advised her to look for pregnant girlfriends. The expectant mother was apparently successful: "Now I have nine pregnant girlfriends," she said.
Since 2010, Graham is married to the film producer Justin Ervin. The pair had announced in August that it expects offspring.
Graham has appeared as a model on the covers of numerous US magazines and 2016 jury member of the US television program "America's Next Top Model". She was the first plus-size model to make it into the Top Ten in the "Forbes" list of top-earning models. At the end of 2017, she finished in the top ten with an estimated annual income of $ 5.5 million. She has been working for years to ensure that other curvy women get a more positive body sensation.
