A Mother's Influence
Back in early March, the Inglorious Basterds star, who shares her child with boyfriend Norman Reedus, took a moment to honor her mom on International Women’s Day. In a heartfelt tribute, Diane expressed how much her mother means to her. "On #InternationalWomensDay, I want to take a moment to honor my mom," she wrote alongside a stunning selfie of the two taken on March 8. "I left home when I was very young, so we missed out on a lot of bonding and becoming 'friends.' But now, Maria-Theresa has become the best mother a girl could ever wish for."
Since welcoming her daughter with Norman in November 2018, Diane has seen a different side of her mom. "She’s been by my side, helping with the baby while I work, washing, cleaning, organizing, cooking, grocery shopping—you name it," Diane explained. "She loves our daughter more than words could describe. Her infinite patience and kindness have shown me a softness and power in my mom that I only see now that I’ve become a mother myself."

And I’m so glad we have this chance to be a family once again. I love you."

For Diane, having her mom around has been a godsend, offering her invaluable advice and support. Before her daughter was born, the Troy actress admitted she never really envisioned herself as a parent. "For a long time, the desire for a child didn’t preoccupy me," she confessed to Madame Figaro in April 2019. "I had my ways. I was fine without one. In short, I didn’t feel absolutely ready. But life ensured my daughter arrived at the right time. It was a surprise, and she is beautiful." Now, Diane is embracing motherhood with open arms, and it’s beautiful to see.
There’s something truly special about watching Diane Kruger step into her role as a mom. We’re all rooting for her and her family as they continue to grow and thrive together!
