Emily Ratajkowski Admits She Wanted to ‘F*** My Way Into a New Kind of Woman’ After Divorce
- On Friday, June 12, 2026, actress Emily Ratajkowski published a personal essay in The Cut reflecting on her divorce from Sebastian Bear-McClard, motherhood, and her dating life as a single mother.
- Ratajkowski recalled that her marriage collapsed after sex stopped six months following the birth of their son, Sylvester, describing the separation as a "violent transition" that left her feeling unwanted.
- To combat feelings of pity, Ratajkowski "decided to f--k my way into a new kind of woman," embracing a "mania" of one-night stands after previously explaining, "I wanted to be precious."
- Reflecting on these months, she realized "many men are turned on by motherhood" and found that "the more I seemed not to need a man, the more desperately he needed me."
- Ultimately, Ratajkowski framed the divorce as transformative rather than failure, concluding that gaining the ability to say "no" was the "only real superpower" she acquired through the experience.
