Lupita Nyong'o talks about the pressure to get married and have kids

Lupita Nyong'o revealed in her new spread for Vogue magazine that she too is under pressure to start a family. She said like many women in their 30s, her mum has started hinting at her getting married and giving her grand kids, however, Lupita says she hasn't found her Mr. Right yet.

She said:
“This is my conundrum. When I was back in Kenya this past week, I would be driving along with my mother and she would say, ‘That’s a nice school for children’ and look at me like” Lupita raises her eyebrows as if to say, My mom wants me to have children now. But I think that will all be determined when I have that moment. When I have that man.”
She also talked about her fashion sense which she got from her mum and race issue.

    Being over 30 myself, I know firsthand how real the pressure is. We have got to stop putting women under this pressure o, before people start making wrong choices. Thank God I didnt cave and marry one riff-raff who wanted to marry me last year and acted like he was doing me a favour. The suffer I would have suffered ehn, would have been enough for Africa.

    my dear don't rush into marriage by force in the name of pleasing your mother so that you won't rush out as some yoruba actress in nigeria.
    it is the wish of every momma to have there grand child,but she will not be the one to face it.so wait for the right one don't allow allow your momma hunger for grand child to influence you because i have see how those that want to please there momma ends in marriage.
