Rachel McAdams has posed with two breast pumps for a magazine photo shoot, and the internet is loving it.
The 40-year-old actress gave birth to her baby boy just eight months ago, and during her cover shoot for Girls. Girls. Girls. Magazine Rachel had to take breaks to pump for breast milk – which gave the photographer an idea.
Claire Rothstein, the founder of the magazine, took to Instagram to share the iconic pic and explained why they decided to let the new mum wear her breast pumps.
“A million reasons why I wanted to post this picture. Obviously #rachelmcadams looks incredible and was quite literally the dream to work with but also this shoot was about 6 months post her giving birth to her son, so between shots she was expressing/pumping as still breastfeeding,” she wrote.
“We had a mutual appreciation disagreement about who’s idea it was to take this picture but I’m still sure it was hers which makes me love her even more.”
The magazine editor continued to highlight how natural the process is, by saying “Breastfeeding is the most normal thing in the world, like breathing and I can’t for the life of me imagine why or how it is ever frowned upon or scared of.”
“I don’t even think it needs explaining but just wanted to put this out there, as if it even changes one person’s perception of something so natural, so normal, so amazing then that’s great.”
Rachel welcomed her son into the world back in April with boyfriend Jamie Linden, but has not publicly shared his name.
