Simoné isn't alone in this new chapter of motherhood.
Former Miss South Africa and medical doctor Tamaryn Green is also basking in the glow of new motherhood. The model announced her pregnancy in August last year.
She and her husband, Ze Nxumalo, welcomed their baby girl on January 28.
Sharing a photo of herself cradling her baby, Green wrote, "In my arms, I hold the world. 🙂Every late night, every tear, every smile, this journey of motherhood has been the most incredible chapter of my life. I've grown, I've stumbled, I've soared, and I wouldn't trade a moment of it. This is a love like no other."
Together, these two powerhouse women remind us that motherhood, whether it's baby number one or three, is a personal, transformative, and at times messy journey.
