Addison Timlin Writes Emotional Post About Being a Single Mother Amid Divorce from Jeremy Allen White

Addison Timlin is opening up about life as a single mother amid her divorce from Jeremy Allen White.

The 31-year-old actress took to her Instagram account on Sunday (May 14) to write a Mother’s Day note in which she reflected on the past nine months of her life as a single mom.

“Parenting alone is not how I pictured it. It is so f–king hard,” Addison began her lengthy letter on Instagram.

She continued, “It is all out covered in shit crying on the floor kick you in the shins screaming with no sound coming out hard. Its not the natural order of things. It can be exhausting but more than anything it can just be so lonely. when something magical happens and you have to tell yourself ‘don’t forget this’ because there’s no witness by your side. It’s so painful. But just like everything with motherhood the lows are demolished by the staggering heights.”

“To live with young children is an eyes wide open, wondrous and joyful place to be, it’s to be surrounded by a daily expression of their authentic selves and I wonder if without their example I would have been able to do the same. My hope for all mothers is that the expansive, unconditional, without fear or judgement love we offer our children can be turned towards ourselves as much as possible. We need it,” Addison said. “Knowing what is best for you is easy if you can get quiet enough- doing what is best for you can seem impossible- but it’s not. I’m feeling so peaceful today and so deeply in love with my children, being a mom is the only thing I’ve ever wanted and being theirs is just the luckiest most remarkable thing on the planet. Doing it alone has given me more strength and more empathy and more tears than anything else in my life ever has.”

“So thank you to everyone that has helped me in these last 9 months, the moms who picked my kid up from school in an emergency, play dates that made weekends feel a little less like climbing a small mountain, crying in my car, urgent care centers, frozen 1 and 2, and my little man JJ, Kraft mac and cheese, dry shampoo, ice cream, lollipops, goldfish, pirates booty, pull ups, crocs, soap & water, neighbors, my friends, my family, and if you turned and said to me ‘I’ve got you.’ Oof. It feels good. Happy Mother’s Day ya’ll,” she concluded.

The rumored reason for the split has been revealed.
