Padma Lakshmi enjoys "pyjama days" with her daughter.
The 55-year-old star has revealed that herself and her 15-year-old daughter, Krishna, spend an entire day together in their pyjamas every year.
Speaking to People about their routine, Padma shared: "Basically, we get up (I earlier than her) and we make our bed, and then we get into crisp new pyjamas after brushing our teeth or showering. Then we get back into pyjamas and spend the whole day [together].
"She's on her computer or doing homework, I'm reading. Then, we kind of parallel study and watch a movie."
Padma also spends quality time with her daughter in their kitchen.
The TV star explained: "I'll make broth and will throw in some noodles, and poach some vegetables in it. Then we make pots of tea with little sandwiches, and we get it all ready on a tray, and have a picnic on my bed."
Krishna has already been offered the opportunity to follow in her mom's footsteps and become a model. However, Padma would prefer her to follow another route in life.
She said: "Obviously people have approached her. And she does want to be an actor, she does want to be a singer, but I'd rather she wind up alone on the cover of a magazine because of accomplishments in those areas, rather than just because she's a pretty face.
"I don't knock modelling at all. I wouldn't have the life I do, or have been able to travel as much as I did as a young person, if I hadn't modelled. It helped me pay off my college loans. [But] I'd rather she focus on her craft."
Meanwhile, Padma admitted in 2024 that she was feeling "more confident" than ever.
The model - who launched her own lingerie collection last year - told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column: "I’m more confident now, physically and otherwise. And I would never go back to my 20s, even if it meant I had a body that was more fit and skinny and tight and and high in all the right places. You know, I look OK now!"
