Connie Britton Shares Why She Decided to Pursue Adoption as a Single Mom


Connie Britton shares why she decided to pursue adoption as a single mom. The actress adopted her son Yoby in 2011 from Ethiopia.

As she talked about becoming a mother, Britton said she "went into [that chapter of my life] a little bit blindly, not really fully anticipating what it is to be a single mom and how difficult that is, and what you're taking on in doing that." The actress teams up with a home design specialist, a parenting coach and a stylist who will help single moms improve their lives. But for now, he's such a sweet boy and still loves a lot of kids' stuff, so I'm going to hold on to that for as long as I can," the proud mom shared at the time.
