@TJ Please get off your feminist soap box. We are not haters, we are realists. There is a difference. If you break your leg you can’t run a marathon. If you injure your hand, you’re useless as a secretary. If you have a baby, gain weight, and alter your body, it’s totally possible you can no longer model. There are exceptions to the rule, but don’t act like having a baby doesn’t threaten her career. It’s not hate, it’s just fact.

That’s so funny that people are suggesting her career is over. Women saying this. WOW. How regressive are we? Having a child, is a choice. Just like having an abortion at 19 is a choice, so is having a child. And you should respect her choice. How dare any of us, “keep it real” and say it’s over for her. No, she just has to work twice as hard to get rid of haters like ya’ll. Damn shame.

Bad timing for sure. I’m sure this isn’t the end of her career, but it does limit it. Good luck to her and I hope the father is around to help raise his child.

@noname
I agree! Let’s all be realistic. She hasn’t solidified her career yet. You can’t compare her to Heidi Klum or Lidya Kebede who had their kids waaay after they left an imprint in the modelling industry. I personally LOVE me some Ms. Dunn. She is beautiful and has such a striking face as well as Sessiliee Lopez.

I would LOVE to see who the father is.

A baby is a blessing, but keep it real:
*She’s nineteen. Teenage unwed mother.
*Shooting star. How is she gonna focus on her career with a newborn child?
*Baby weight and baby body. No Prada shows with hips.
Liya and Heidi can do what they want b/c they paid their dues when they were young, rocked out on covers, in spreads, etc for YEARS before they had children.
You can’t deny this is really bad timing, but who knows. Nothing’s impossible.

She’s having a baby…she’s not dying of a terminal illness.

Congrats Jourdan! May the universe smile upon you and your child

I definitely don’t think children are the end of anyone’s career. If regular women do it everyday, who says Jourdan Dunn can’t? Look at Heidi Klum …she had a child one week and then weeks after was stomping the runway in the Victoria’s Secret show…don’t sleep on a model’s ability to bounce back!

Doesn’t Liya Kebede have 2 or 3 kids? And she’s relatively young… Lawd, I hope Jourdan can pull it off!! I like her better than Chanel!
