Olivia Wilde shares breastfeeding photo featuring newborn daughter

Olivia Wilde shared a motherly moment with her Instagram followers.

On Monday night, the 32-year-old actress posted a candid photo of her breastfeeding her newborn daughter, Daisy. In the selfie, Wilde -- a proud feminist -- is wearing a shirt that reads: “Never underestimate the power of a woman.”

“My drinking buddy,” she Instagrammed.

The “Drinking Buddies” star has never been bashful about breastfeeding. Three months after the birth Otis in 2014, she posed for Glamour magazine while nursing her son in a Robert Cavalli gown. “Being shot with Otis is so perfect because any portrait of me right now isn’t complete without my identity as a mother being a part of that,” she said of the photo shoot at the time. “Breastfeeding is the most natural thing. I don’t know, now it feels like Otis should always be on my breast.”

Wilde added, “I mean, I certainly don’t really look like that when I’m [typically] breastfeeding. And there’s usually a diaper involved.”

Jason Sudeikis’ wife also brought up the photo shoot when speaking to Yahoo Beauty in July. “People should be allowed to breastfeed wherever they want, whenever they want,” she said. “There should be no pressure on women to breastfeed, or they are made to seem like they are terrible mothers. I think that’s really unfair.”
