Chatting in an intimate panel discussion about the importance of the day, Kelly explained: "My son Titan, he's seven, and he's learning about International Women's Day and he comes home and he talks to us about it. Then I heard screaming in the bathroom and I thought, 'What the hell is going on?' So I get up there and he’s [saying], 'Girls are better than boys!' I just sat there and I really thought twice about putting it on social, then thought, 'No I can't do this to him!'

"I can hear him in there talking to his nanny, and she’s saying, 'Well you know Titan, women didn't have rights,' and he's like, 'Yeah but-' and she’s like, 'No, you gotta listen.' She's like, 'Women couldn't vote, women couldn’t do this or that,' and he's like, 'Oh!' like covered in tears. I was like, 'Oh my Gosh, that's right. They don't know, this new generation doesn't know so it's our job to remind them of how far we've come and how far we have to go. We've only scratched the surface!"
