Celebs and BF Promotion

As a future 'lactation enthusiast' I think it's good that celebs come forward and promote BF.

However, it seems that a BF woman's biggest anxiety (it's certainly mine) is BF in public. Why do we never see our celebs doing this? Surely this is the best advertisement they can do?
Why are their breasts more taboo than ours?

Posh definately breastfed one of her children as I remember reading something about David giving a bottle of expressed.

BTW she had her 2 sections for medical reasons, albeit dubious ones.

The first was for a breech baby, the 2nd was due to being told vbac was too dangerous. Its not her fault if she was given bad advice.

Here's the Lucy Lawless breastfeeding poster.

That is a lovely picture Soupy, much nicer than the Jerry Hall one I think. She is looking so lovingly at her baby.

well thats if she was telling the truth! Like Kate Winslet lied about natural birth, from memory it was announced very early on in VB's first preg that she would be having a c section, which is odd as babies are anyway up, until about 32 weeks!
Still whatever her reasons, its up to her and none of our business LOL
I am a kiwi and Lucy Lawless found first fame in the ASB (ie natwest) adverts in NZ, she has always been gorgeous and popular, Xena made her more so internationally!
