For Mother’s Day this year, Kate Bosworth joined stepdaughter Jasper Polish and Polish’s biological mother, Jo Strettell, to discuss modern motherhood.
met her husband Michael Polish nearly a decade ago, she also began a relationship with his then-13-year-old daughter, Jasper. Now, with ten years of modern motherhood under her belt, Bosworth—along with Jasper and her biological mom, makeup artist Jo Strettell—is out to shift the stereotypes oft associated with step-motherhood.
"When I came into the picture, it was very important for me to have a relationship with Jo," says Bosworth. "From the get go, we knew that in order to raise a healthy young woman in the world, it was important for all of us to lead with love and really raise her with unity in the family.
Bosworth acknowledges that, naturally, she faced a learning curve when figuring out how best to support Jasper. "At the beginning, I didn’t want to do anything wrong," she says. "When I met Jasper, I was 28, and I still felt like a kid myself. I was so excited; I didn’t feel fearful, I was incredibly thrilled to have her in my life. But I didn’t want to make a misstep, that I remember.
A piece of advice from both mothers for those navigating their role in a blended family? "Just keep that away from the kids," says Bosworth "The effect that it has is so devastating, and the adults should remain adults and take responsibility, and make sure that issues and differences are discussed privately.
