Hilary Duff Shares Hilarious Reality for Other Moms Who Need Frequent Bathroom Breaks

Hilary Duff is no stranger to sharing about her life as a mom. The How I Met Your Father star, who shares son Luca with ex-husband Mike Comrie and daughters Banks and Mae with husband Matthew Koma, updates fans on social media with exciting baby milestones, reading hacks for children and the hilarious antics her kids get themselves into. While on set at work, Duff just shared an extremely relatable post to her Instagram Story that so many moms can agree with.

In her August 25 Instagram Story, the actress shared a photo of herself with her hands completely full, holding a water bottle, a traveling coffee mug and a bottled beverage. Duff is wearing her blonde, wavy locks in a low bun and a flannel. “Not one, not two, but 3!” Duff wrote in a text overlay on the photo. “Hope there’s a bathroom near by.”
