According to studies, one-third of girls become pregnant before turning 20 years old. A mother’s love is selfless because some parents are willing to put forth their best efforts to raise their children properly. However, having a child is a significant responsibility for the family.
At Bright Side, we are inspired by the ten celebrities who overcame early motherhood to show that you don’t have to give up on your goals to be a successful parent.
1. Sofia Vergara

Sofia Vergara became a mother to her son, Manolo, when she was just 19 years old, and at age 21, she also became a single parent. She enjoyed having a baby at a young age since it gave her the energy to accomplish anything she set her mind.
She took advantage of that and worked tirelessly to act and raise Manolo in such a way that he would never lack anything. When Vergara receives compliments on her son, a successful 30-year-old, she thinks that it makes all the sacrifices worthwhile.
2. Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner achieved her lifelong dream of becoming a young mother. When she was only 20 years old, she and her partner Travis Scott welcomed their daughter, Stormi, and she didn’t give a damn what other people thought. “This is what I want to do, and whether people like it or not, I’m fine with any conclusion.”
3. Brandy
When Brandy released her debut self-titled record at age 15, she rose to fame as a singer. Sy’rai, her daughter, was born in 2002 when she was 23. Given that she had to care for a child while also attempting to figure herself out, Brandy faced many difficulties during that time. While focusing on herself, Brandy gained support from her friends and family, safeguarded her child, and surrounded herself with excellent people.
4. Reese Witherspoon

In one interview, Reese Witherspoon admitted that she was afraid when she gave birth to her daughter, Ava. She had no idea how to juggle parenthood and a job at 23: “I was just like every other mom and dad trying to figure it out.” And she did, for sure! Witherspoon thinks every sacrifice she made as a mom was worthwhile now that Ava is a 22-year-old model.
5. Candace Cameron Bure
Valeri and Candace Bure had their first child at a relatively young age. Having been 22 years old at the time, Bure gave birth to her daughter Natasha in 1998. She is an actress, model, YouTuber, and social influencer who is currently 23 years old.
6. Victoria Beckham

Victoria Beckham is a well-known fashion designer with a long list of noteworthy accomplishments, but being a mother has been the pinnacle of her success. When Beckham gave birth to her first kid, Brooklyn, at just 24, she demonstrated that having a child at a young age is not always a bad choice.
Brooklyn, now 23 years old, is a photographer and model who recently launched his own food show.
7. Jamie Lynn Spears
The singer and actress talked openly about the difficulties she encountered when she became a mother at 17. She said that she used to feel anxious since she was always the youngest mother present, but that, through time, she had come to understand that being a good and capable mother has nothing to do with age. “Love is all it’s about, young or old,” I’ve met some of the most fantastic, amazing moms who range in age from 20 to 50.
8. Kate Hudson

Ryder, Kate Hudson’s first child, was born when she was 24 years old. Hudson felt like a teen mom at the time, although 24 may not seem like a young age to conceive a family. The good news is that Ryder can always pitch in and assist his mother in babysitting them since he is now much older than his siblings.
9. Adele

Adele, who gave birth to her baby at 24, experienced postpartum depression. She adored her baby at the time, but she detested being a mother. Adele found that taking an afternoon off once a week and beginning to be honest about her thoughts with her friends helped her get through this trying time.
10. Hilary Duff

When Hilary had her first child at age 24, people would often say things like, “You’re a baby having a baby,” even though Hilary thought she was ready to be a mother. Duff didn’t feel any different about her choice despite this, though. Being a young mother was difficult since she felt incredibly alone while raising her child while most of her friends were out having fun.
