‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Star Adelaide Kane Poses Nude For ‘Women’s Health’: I’m ‘Grateful’ For My Body
Adelaide Kane posed naked in addition to seven other inspiring women for the May/June ‘Our Bodies Are Awesome’ issue.
Grey’s Anatomy actress Adelaide Kane bared it all for the May/June issue of Women’s Health magazine’s “Our Bodies Are Awesome” issue, which features Adelaide, 32, and seven other inspiring women posing naked to celebrate body confidence. In the snapshots, one of which can be seen below, Adelaide posed on a tree trunk as her brunette hair flowed gracefully behind her. She also showed off her tattoos, both of which are positioned on either side of her rib cage, under her armpits.
While speaking to the magazine, the Australian actress said she takes care of herself and her body by appreciating the small things. “To feel connected to my body doesn’t require over-exhaustion. I’m grateful for what my body can do when I put my mind to it, even down to little things like going on a hike or taking a leisurely walk to a coffee shop instead of driving,” she explained. “It takes real strength to prioritize being kind to yourself.”
The Australian actress admitted she didn’t always appreciate her body, though. “I started to recognize the work I needed to do to take care of myself after my first season of Reign, when I was 24. It was the most intense work schedule I’d ever been on. I learned quickly that I couldn’t cheat myself of sleep or skip meals because I wanted to work on my lines,” she recalled. “Ultimately, I had to be more considerate of my body and its needs. And over the last few years, my mindset has changed from ‘I need to take care of myself for work’ to ‘I need to take care of myself for me.’”
Adelaide makes it known she likes moving her body, as exemplified by the several posts on her Instagram profile that show her enjoying the great outdoors and working out. Plus, she’s an ambassador for Alo Yoga, which inspires people to move their bodies while being mindful.
Once the issue was released, Adelaide took to her Instagram to share the gorgeous nude pictures of herself. “Such an honor to be included in this years @womenshealthmag The Body Issue!” she wrote in the caption. “Thank you so so much for having me. The other seven women included alongside the actress are Nike trainer Betina Gozo Shimonek, comedian & actress Amanda Seales, influencer and actress Hannah Stocking, yoga teacher Jessamyn Stanley, actress and activist Jillian Mercado, body confidence creator Sarah Nicole Landry, and United StatesWomen’s National Soccer team member and mother Sydney Leroux.
