In a recent interview with Glamourthe proud mom (31) was asked if she hopes her girls will become athletes.

“I hope they become athletes, probably selfishly, but also because there are so many things involved in sports that translate into real life,” she said. “But that being said, my husband and I are both arts advocates and we’d love to see them get involved.”

“He was a competitive member of a jazz band, so he was a well-rounded guy. Not many people know this, but he played the baritone sax, so if they want to go into music, the arts, we’re going to fully encourage that as well. We’re going to try everything let’s just see what’s left.”
