Rebel Wilson, at 44, is basking in the glow of motherhood with her daughter, Royce, who, at 16 months, has already begun to articulate her affection with her very first word, Mama.
In an intimate interview, ahead of her memoir Rebel Rising: A Memoir, the actress and comedian opened up about the profound impact Royce has had on her life.
"It shocks me how much she melts my heart," Rebel shared with People, expressing her astonishment and joy at Royce's early milestone.
The mention of her becoming a parent seemed to fill her with a sense of wonder, reflecting on how she had envisioned herself as a strict parent, only to find the reality to be quite the opposite.
Rebel's journey to motherhood was marked by what she describes as a "miracle," with her surrogate becoming pregnant using Rebel's "last viable embryo."
The moment she met her newborn daughter was transformative. "She opens her eyes, and she looks at us. We're a family now. I'm 42 years old and I have a baby," she marvelled. "I'm a mother. It's a bloody miracle."
