Country music singer-songwriter Carrie Underwood knows first-hand how hard it can be to juggle being a mom and wife while maintaining a red-hot career. She has a message for all the other working moms out there as well!
As she held her 2018 CMA ‘Female Vocalist of the Year’ trophy backstage during the event, she directed a heartfelt message to other mothers balancing their family and professional lives simultaneously.
The Oklahoman explained to the media gathered backstage that there’s no such thing as taking time off in the world of a working mother. “I mean, I’m a working mom, working wife, same as all the other ones out there. My job’s kinda weird,” Carrie expressed. “But you just figure your way through it, and women, we ladies are good at that.”
Underwood continued to tell reporters that she is honored to hold many titles, with ‘mom’ being her favorite. “And I’m just excited,” she added. “I’m excited that they get to see their mom do that, and see me onstage, and hopefully I can be an inspiration to my children and to other working moms out there, because we got this!”
Also during the CMAs, Brad helped reveal that Carrie is expecting a second boy and Maddie & Tae’s Taylor Dye let it slip to Us Weekly that the superstar’s due date is in January!
After welcoming her second son with husband Mike Fisher, Carrie will kick off her The Cry Pretty Tour 360 with special guests Maddie & Tae and Runaway June in May.
