In a Q&A session on Instagram, Harper was asked how motherhood has shifted her identity and sense of self. She wrote in reply:

“I think my career for so long was so ‘me focused’ it’s been so nice to take a break from myself and fully be focused on loving and taking care of my baby girl! It’s shifted who I am in the best way, I feel so much more myself, so confident and strong. I feel truly transformed from the whole experience of pregnancy, birth and becoming a mom.”

Meanwhile, she also shared the reason why her daughter is named Romy.

"There is a french actress from the 60s who went by Romy (nickname for Rosemary) and I always thought it was pretty. When I got pregnant and Jared and I met a little girl in a coffee shop with the name and thought it was so cute 🤍"
