Denise Richards: I’ll never talk about weight around my girls

Denise Richards has vowed not to complain about her weight in front of her daughters because she doesn’t want them to grow up with an unhealthy attitude to their bodies.

Denise, the mum of four year old Sam and two year old Lola, told Shape magazine recently: “I’ll never talk about weight around them. And they’ll never hear me say, ‘Mommy’s feeling fat today’. That kind of attitude just makes young girls grow up to be dissatisfied with their bodies.”

She added that she tries to provide them with a good example of healthy living though: “Working out is part of my life, not just an I-have-to-get-ready-for-a-photo-shoot thing.”

“I exercise almost every day. The girls usually play in the workout room with me, so they’re learning by example.”
