Suki Waterhouse has opened up about struggling with her postpartum experience after giving birth to her first child this year.

In March 2024, Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson privately welcomed their first child together. Shortly afterwards, The Daily Mail reported that the couple had become parents after they were photgraphed pushing a pram together. Last week (Apr 5), Suki took to Instagram to share the first photo of their child with the caption: "welcome to the world angel."

Now, Suki has taken to social media to speak candidly about both the highs and lows that come with life after pregnancy.
