Deschanel’s Vegan Pregnancy

In the August issue of Ladies’ Home Journal, 34-year-old actress and star of the hit TV show Bones Emily Deschanel talks about some of the questions she receives while pregnant as a vegan. She shares that she typically has to defend her diet to people who insist that she must have dairy and meat during the pregnancy. She told the magazine, “You really have to tap into your self-esteem whenever people try to convince you you’re making the wrong choice.” Deschanel is expecting her first child with husband David Hornsby this fall.
