Nara Smith Rejects ‘Tradwife’ Label, Emphasizes Working Mom Role

American influencer and model Nara Smith, mother of several children, appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast with host Alex Cooper and publicly rejected the “tradwife” label that many online followers had attached to her. She said she and husband Lucky Blue Smith share parenting duties and household chores equally, travel frequently, and that cooking is a personal interest rather than a sign of subservience. Smith described the label as “very bizarre” and stressed she is a working mother.

The comments sparked a mixed reaction on social media. Supporters praised her for speaking out, while critics accused her of promoting a nostalgic, gender‑role‑based image and of capitalising on the tradwife trend. The discussion also referenced her family’s recent challenges, including a cancer diagnosis for one of her young children. The debate highlights ongoing tensions around gender expectations in influencer culture.
