When Katrina Kaif said ‘I want my kids to have the experience of being with both parents’ after a childhood without her father | Bollywood News


The buzz around Katrina Kaif’s pregnancy first began soon after her wedding to Vicky Kaushal in 2021. Now, reports claim that the couple is expecting their first child in October. While the actors have not yet confirmed the news, speculation has only intensified after reports suggested that they are currently in London, preparing to welcome their baby.

Amid the frenzy, an old interview of Katrina has resurfaced, offering a glimpse into her thoughts on family and parenthood. In a 2019 conversation with Filmfare, the actor reflected on her upbringing. Raised by her mother, Suzanne Turquotte, after her parents’ separation, Katrina said: “Not having a father figure does create a certain vacuum and makes any girl feel vulnerable. When I have kids, I want them to have the experience of being with both parents.”

She also admitted that difficult phases in her life often made her long for paternal support: “Each time I’ve gone through something emotionally hard, I was compelled to reflect that it must be nice for those who have a strong fatherly support from a male figure, who loves you unconditionally.”

Katrina Kaif, who has seven siblings, once asked her mother how she managed to raise such a large family on her own.

“I asked her what were you thinking when you had so many children and how did you do it on your own. But in the last few years, what my mom had to say about life has been much more helpful to me. It bears more weight. Now that you can see things from a distance, you realise it must have been tough for her.”
