The Good Wife Star Cush Jumbo Shares Swimsuit Photo of “Little Green”

1. She Loves Her Job

Work is something Jumbo feels defines who she is, and she would never give it up. “[Work] is not something I could ever compromise on, and alongside that goes being a parent,” she says. “I love being a mum, but it’s also why I’m not going to have any more children. Because I know what I can handle, and it means I can give appropriate time and love to my son, to my husband, and to the job that I love.”

2. Content To Be Happy

Jumbo has no interest in trying to achieve some mythological standard of having it all. "The idea that you can 'have it all'? Have five kids, and cook the dinners, and do the laundry, and paint the house? To me that is an expectation some people can fulfill… I can’t fulfill it,” she says. “We all need to find our level of expectation, rather than comparing ourselves to others. Because then you’re happy, you’re content.”

3. Working Mother

Jumbo is realistic about what it takes to be a working mother. “I think what I have learnt is that everything costs something,” she says. “I do not prescribe to this idea of the perfect mother, or the woman who can do everything. It is literally impossible, and the pressure that you put on yourself is not sustainable. Sometimes I can give 100 per cent to being a mom and being around and present, and at other times, when I’m working, I can’t. But if I concern myself with the mother part of it then I am not going to do my job properly. And it is the same when I am writing, or when I am traveling, or having to do other things for work. But ultimately, I feel like working allows me to be more of a whole person, and the more of a whole person I am, the better mother I am.”

4. No-Tech Sundays

Jumbo’s down time is spent enjoying quality time with her family, avoiding screens and just having fun together. “We do ‘no-tech Sundays’, so we use the record player, then dance around,” she says. “Food, music, Max and Sean. Prancing around, building a den. That’s my ideal; that’s a perfect day for me.”

5. It Was Meant To Be

Jumbo can’t imagine doing anything other than being an entertainer. “I have been on stages for as long as I can remember,” she says. “I was definitely an attention seeker – I am one of seven children, and there is never enough attention to go around, so maybe, even subconsciously, I was absolutely loving that people thought I was good at something and wanted to come and be in the front row. But also, I always really loved language and poetry, and writing stories and telling stories, and that kept going and going through my younger years. You know, writing shows, and poems and songs… So, I guess it all rolled into one. I really, really enjoy pretending to be other people, and taking on another skin, becoming somebody else. This is all I ever wanted to do for a job, to be an actor. I mean, with a name like Cush Jumbo I don’t know what else I was meant to be!”

Golnesa "GG" Gharachedaghi is steaming up social media with her latest swimsuit selfie. In one of her latest posts, the Shahs of Sunset beauty shows off her 30-plus pound weight loss in a bathing suit. “Currently taking applications for my next relationship #ThirstTrappin,” she captioned the mirror selfie. “Where do we apply ??” responded one of her followers. How did the reality star lose weight and what are her top health habits? Celebwell has the answer.

1. She Is on Ozempic

GG doesn’t conceal the fact that she lost weight via the controversial jab. "I don't see a reason to hide being on a weight loss [medication] or a cosmetic procedure," Golnesa told Entertainment Tonight May 18, "just talk about it because there's so many people out there who want to do the same thing or they want to learn about what you did." She added, "Obviously, I didn't look like this two months ago. So, all of a sudden, to lose almost 30 pounds, I would be a liar to say I quit drinking alcohol and you know all of a sudden started working out like some people like to say."

2. She Works Out with a Personal Trainer

On Instagram, GG revealed that she had enlisted the help of a professiona. “Reza Farahan because of [you] I have hired a personal trainer so I can start getting in shape and healthy. I swear I wouldn’t have been so inspired to do it without your pics and videos of motivation. [You] seriously need to make workout videos or something and sell that sh-t.”

3. She Does Pilates

Gigi is a big fan of Pilates. “Pilates always helps with loose problem areas & is also a great for strengthening,” she told The Skinny Confidential.

4. She Eats Green

Gigi consumes a lot of plants. “I have always turned to extremely green vegetables because it gets your digestive system running [ if ya know what I mean ; ) ] and that helps cleanse the body in a healthy way. I also like to do AB work to tighten it up a bit,” she told Skinny Confidential. “I’m a huge salad fan so I usually can’t go one day without having a huge bowl of salad. I have recently been adding kale, chia seeds, & quinoa to everything…Such healthy super foods.”

5. Inspired by Her Kids

What else motivates Gigi to stay in shape? “My biggest motivation is knowing that I want to have lots of children and that I need to maintain my health in order to make that happen. I grew up having parents that eat extremely healthy so it totally motivates me to have that influence upon my children. The amount of deaths within cancer disease & the American Heart Association has become a scary toll, and so much of this is caused by living an unhealthy lifestyle. Again, healthy mind, healthy body…Healthy body, healthy mind!!” she said.

1. Newlywed Lifestyle

Lawrence married Love Island USA's Bennett Sipes in May 2022 in Los Angeles, and says she is living a healthier life these days. "I've cut out drinking and partying because we're going to Hawaii," she says. "We spend a lot of time with our families, with our dogs and we're so focused on work right now. We have fun, we go to dinner and stuff. We see some of our friends."

2. She Lifts Weights

Lawrence lifts heavy weights as part of her exercise routine. “Lean muscle mass naturally diminishes with age,” according to the Mayo Clinic. “Your body fat percentage will increase over time if you don't do anything to replace the lean muscle you lose over time. Strength training can help you preserve and enhance your muscle mass at any age.”

3. She’s a Homebody

Lawrence describes herself as a homebody, and loves quiet time with her pets. “When we’re frazzled, our fight-or-flight response is on overload causing a host of problems,” says clinical health psychologist Amy Sullivan, PsyD, ABPP. “We can use calm, quiet moments to tap into a different part of the nervous system that helps shut down our bodies’ physical response to stress.”

4. Business Woman

Lawrence is taking a step into the business world by releasing her own perfume. "I bought every perfume we could think of,” she says. “I thought, 'There's so many that I love, and I was constantly mixing perfumes.' I realized I want girls to buy one fragrance and love it and not spend a ton of money because TikTok is telling them to. It's still in the process. I've had different samples, but I didn't like any of them. This is the first thing I am putting my face on, and I want it to be perfect. I found a new chemist in America, and it's going to take about four months. It's a bunch of my favorite perfumes combined into one. It will be sweet. I am going to start with one and then hopefully it does well.”

5. Too Hot To Handle

Lawrence has fond memories of her time on Too Hot To Handle. “I was having fun, and I wasn’t thinking about it,” she says. “I didn’t care if I was going to get judged, because I knew I was going to be judged regardless. Every episode that you see is genuinely me. Who wants to look at someone who’s not genuine online? It’s too fake and it gets boring. I could tell when some people weren’t being genuine on the show. I could see it myself, and it definitely comes through on camera.”
