Mindy Kaling is staying mum about her daughter's father 👀
While she's yet to share a photo of her daughter's face and opts to keep that portion of her life out of the spotlight, the writer and star is not shy about discussing the affect motherhood has had on how she views her career.
"The three months after giving birth, especially since I did it by myself, were very funny, and at times very gruesome. But I don’t know that I would ever write about it," she says. "I do think that a child appreciates you for none of the things that you are proud of. The qualities in my life that I’m really proud of, like being a funny writer or a good dresser or a great boss or a good listener -- I don’t know that my daughter loves me for any of those reasons.
Though she's ultimately unsure how motherhood will change the kind of work she does, Kaling knows one thing for sure -- she will keep working, though it may be in a different capacity as Katherine grows up. "I am someone who loves work. That will never change. But the kind of work that I do has changed," she admits. "When I did the first season ofat Hulu, they were like, 'You could do as many episodes in a season as you want.' And I was like, 'Can we do the maximum?' But waking up at 5 o’clock in the morning to do 26 episodes of TV is not something that I’m going to do again.
