Suki Waterhouse and her baby daughter are British Vogue cover stars.
The mother-daughter duo appeared on the magazine's August cover with Waterhouse holding her baby daughter, whom she has with partner and former “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson. The “Good Looking” singer opened up to British Vogue about the humiliation of motherhood, fame and her “pure love” with Pattinson.
“A mother's morality is very much questioned, not just by herself but by society,” she told the outlet about motherhood. “Everybody projects something onto a mother. It's insane.”
Waterhouse also talked about the moment the couple realized they were ready to start a family: “One day, we looked at each other and said, 'Okay, this is what we're ready for.'”

Suki Waterhouse says she lights up when she's around Robert Pattinson
“I think Rob is a really funny guy. He brightens the mood when you're around him,” Waterhouse said, adding, “LA has definitely become a lot more fun since I met him.”
Waterhouse said the pair's relationship started off “fiercely” and rumours of a romance circulated between them in 2018.
She also opened up about her romance with Pattinson, telling British Vogue that while writing songs for her upcoming second album, “Memoir of a Sparklemuffin,” “there was this distinct feeling of, 'Wow, Rob and I have been together for six years and I'm still crazy about this relationship.'”
The “Daisy Jones and the Six” actress also got candid about her post-pregnancy weight gain during a shoot for the fashion magazine.
“I always think, 'Oh, I'm shooting the cover of Vogue and now I'm 25 pounds heavier than normal,'” she said.
Suki Waterhouse makes rare statement about split from Bradley Cooper
Prior to her relationship with Pattinson, Waterhouse was in a three-year relationship with another A-list actor, Bradley Cooper, before splitting in 2015.
“I'd say I'm a pretty strong person at this point, but when something very public happens and the story behind it is dark and painful and it's not going well and you can't explain yourself to the world, it can be very isolating and confusing,” she revealed. “It took me probably 10 years to sort myself out and actually be able to have this breadth of impact on my life.”
Suki Waterhouse first announced the birth of her baby in a social media post in April.
The intensely private star first announced the birth of her daughter in a viral Instagram post.
Waterhouse posed standing by the door, wearing a cardigan and holding her child, and captioned the photo: “Welcome to the world, angel ❤️.”
“He was with me and he was very nervous, like any father would be, but for someone who is a very anxious person, he was very calm,” Waterhouse told Vogue about how Pattinson handled the birth of his daughter.
Waterhouse called Pattinson “exactly the father I wanted,” adding, “Father and daughter? It's a true love story.”
