When life gets overwhelming, it’s crucial to carve out some time for yourself. Jennifer Love Hewitt, the talented actress from Client List, knows this all too well. Amidst the coronavirus quarantine, she’s been juggling parenting duties with her two kids, but she managed to sneak in a little self-care. On April 7, Jennifer shared a makeup-free selfie that showcased her natural beauty, proving that even in the chaos of quarantine, a moment of relaxation can work wonders.
In a candid Instagram Stories post, the 41-year-old wrote, “Feeling better!” alongside a stunning selfie taken from her home sauna. Jennifer looked absolutely radiant, glowing with the kind of energy that only comes from taking a much-needed break. Since the pandemic hit the U.S., Jennifer, her husband Brian Hallisay, and their children, Autumn, 6, and Atticus, 4, have been hunkered down at home. The sauna session was a rare moment of peace for the busy mom.

Honesty About Quarantine Life
While Jennifer was excited to share her moment of relaxation, she hasn’t shied away from discussing the challenges of quarantine life. In a virtual chat with the cohosts of The Talk on April 7, Jennifer opened up about her experience with homeschooling her children, Autumn and Atticus. She admitted, “I was really frustrated at first, to be honest, [on] just how to do [it].” She struggled with figuring out the best way to teach her kids, whether to follow their teacher’s methods or create her own approach.
But Jennifer didn’t let the initial frustration get the best of her. With some advice from a friend, she decided to take a more relaxed and creative approach to homeschooling. “This is your opportunity to teach your kids your way,” her friend told her. Jennifer embraced this advice and began incorporating her own unique methods into their lessons. “We’ve been learning math through dance parties and music,” she explained. “We’ve been doing it our own way. I’m reading stories, and instead of reading them, we’ve been acting them out. It’s just been really fun and it helped me.”
The Joy of Teaching Her Kids
Despite her initial concerns, Jennifer found joy in teaching her children. She emphasized, “The point is for them to laugh and have fun and to learn.” Her efforts clearly paid off when her daughter, Autumn, said something that warmed her heart. “My daughter said to me yesterday, ‘Hey mom, do you think you could maybe come and be a teacher at my school when this is over?’” Jennifer shared. This sweet moment meant a lot to her and showed just how much her children appreciated her efforts.
It’s clear that Jennifer Love Hewitt is not only a talented actress but also a dedicated and creative mom. Her ability to find joy in the chaos of quarantine is inspiring, and her commitment to self-care and her family is something we can all learn from. You got this, Jennifer!
