Pregnant Uzo Aduba Sings Mom’s Praise, Reveals What She Wants For Her Baby
Uzo Aduba knows exactly what she wants from her parenting style!
The “Orange Is the New Black” star became the talk of the town after she unveiled her bulging baby bump to the world at the 2023 Tony Awards. She has now returned to share the most important things she wants her baby to learn from her life while lauding her beloved mother for being a hard worker.
Uzo Aduba’s Parenting Will Involve Her Child Finding Fulfillment In Life
Although she has enjoyed considerable fame as an actress, Aduba’s life significantly changed when she discovered she had taken in and would be a mom for the first time. Despite her joy, the 42-year-old chose to keep the good news close to her chest, only divulging it to her 2.2 million Instagram followers on June 12.
Per The Blast, she had uploaded a reel that zoomed out from a dark surface to reveal her holding a cute white onesie. Once the camera settled on her glammed-up face, she exclaimed, “Ta-da!” She expressed through her caption:
“What a blessing. My husband Robert and I are so happy to enter this next chapter together as parents. I am beyond excited. I get to be someone’s Mommy! I know as the three of us continue to grow, our only, ONLY goal will be to love you, little one. My goodness. Look what God has done.”
The Boston University alum has followed the announcement up with more exciting snaps that show her radiating a pregnancy glow.
While none of the updates involved her talking about the type of parent she wants to be to her child, the “Mrs. America” star did not hesitate to open up about the topic when she joined Samantha Bee on her Lemonada Media-produced podcast, “Choice Words” recently. Amid the pair’s conversation that revolved around Aduba’s journey to becoming a famous actress, she stated:
“For me and what I want to teach this baby. I want my kid to know that their time here means something, you know? My mom worked so hard for me and my siblings and did so much to make sure our lives had everything she expected the American dream to have. But she worked so much. I want, at the end of my story, for everybody who knows me to say ‘she enjoyed her life.’ She had a great time here.”
The “Candy Jar” actress then added that she wanted to teach her child to do what makes them happy and fulfilled.
The ‘How to Live Like a Lady’ Star’s Talent Has Brought Her Numerous Accolades
Although of Nigerian descent, Aduba was born in Boston, Massachusetts, to parents from the Igbo part of Nigeria. She originally wanted to become a lawyer until her creative writing teacher in high school asked her to consider going into the arts.
She poured her all into her acting and began getting recognition for her talent in 2003. She had not only performed in “Translations of Xhosa” at the Olney Theatre Center for the Arts but also earned her Helen Hayes Award nomination for her performance.
The Emmy Awards winner then made her Broadway debut in 2007, playing the role of Toby in “Coram Boy.” After she played the mother of the eponymous character in “Venice,” she made her way to television screens, appearing as a cast member on “Blue Bloods” in 2012.
By the next year, she began portraying Suzanne Warren in “OITNB” and the role earned her multiple awards including the Critics’ Choice Television Award for Best Guest Performer in a Comedy Series, a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Female Actor in a Comedy Series, and two Primetime Emmy Awards.
She first won the Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series category in 2014 and then became the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series winner in 2015. Aduba has since appeared in an avalanche of Hollywood projects, such as “Alvin and the Chipmunks,” “Showing Roots,” “In Treatment,” “We Are Boats,” “Painkiller,” and “Miss Virginia.”
Besides acting, Aduba is a renowned advocate who was a recipient of the Point Courage Award from the Point Foundation for her support of the LGBT community in 2017. Later in 2018, she became Heifer International’s first-ever celeb ambassador to Africa.
As for her net worth, The Blast observed that she was estimated to be worth about $1 million in 2021.
