It can be difficult for many of us to separate the truth and the myth from the lives of the people we follow on Instagram and other social media platforms. In the case of Julianne, known by her Insta handle, @Juli.annee, a recent question and answer session gave a glimpse into the reality of her life as a model using Instagram to drive up to her followers. The life of Julianne shows the luxury lifestyle Instagram fame has given her, but the young mother is looking to reveal the truth behind her life as a single mother.
Julianne was born in California and is of Portuguese and German descent giving her a unique perspective on family life and a dedication to doing the right thing for her young daughter. When discussing her daughter, the love of a mother for daughter is obvious to see, along with the honesty the Insta model tries to bring to questions about the most personal aspects of her life. The model reveals she did feature her daughter on her Instagram page at one point in her career as a model, however, the issue of Internet trolling appears to have reared its head with some followers reporting her posts as inappropriate.
The feeling that Julianne cannot feature her daughter in her work obviously wrangles with the model because she is at pains to point out she is a caring mother who makes many sacrifices as she aims to bring up her daughter in the right way. Discussing her daughter, Julianne explains she limits her working hours to the times her daughter is at school and ensures her daughter’s father can play a role in her life despite living in another state.
One of the areas of her life online that confuse Julianne is the number of people who follow her simply to act outraged when she posts a picture to Instagram. In Julianne’s view, the morality aspect of Instagram is one of the few bad points of her chosen career. The model explains she would be taking selfies, like everybody else in the world, but she is lucky enough to get paid for doing a job she loves. Julianne believes it is important to give interviews and show how she lives her life away from the glare of Instagram to allow others to know she is not the same person as the online persona she has created for Instagram.
As a single mother who was young when she had her own daughter, Julianne is looking to provide inspiration and support for those who are in a similar situation to how she felt after falling pregnant. When answering questions about how single mothers can live a successful and happy life, the model stated she had a tough time when she was younger because she expected to bounce back to her earlier life in super-fast time. Looking back, Julianne now feels every young mother should give themselves between nine and ten months to bounce back and become healthy physically and mentally once more.
