In an interview with Romper, Hillary Duff shut down mom-shamers who were endlessly attacking her parenting skills. The How I Met Your Mother star has been under scrutiny for letting her children ride in the backseat of a moving car without a car seat.
The Instagram video posted on January 3, included Hillary Duff’s younger co-star Molly Bernard in the backseat posing with Duff’s three-year-old daughter Banks.
Addressing the backlash, Duff said in her latest interview:
“It's not like I'm driving on the 405 with my kids in the backseat without a car seat. You have no context. You don't know where I am.”
She also mentioned that she sometimes lets her children sit in the front seat of the car. She added:
“You're telling me you've never put your kids in the backseat to drive a block before with an adult back there? I'm like, 'Happy New Year to you, too'”
How many children does Hillary Duff have?
The 34-year-old actress is the parent of three children. She had her first child Luca Cruz Comrie from her previous marriage to Mike Comrie. Comrie and Duff split in January 2014, after an incident where Comrie asked women to sleep with him while in an inebriated state. According to TMZ, the pair split a day after the story came out.
