Evan Rachel Wood Thanks Ricki Lake For Inspiring Her Natural Home Birth

Just a few days after giving birth, Evan Rachel Wood took to her Twitter page to thank Ricki Lake for her documentary The Business of Being Born.

“I have to say thank you Ricki Lake for your inspiring documentary ‘the business of being born,'” the Mildred Pierce actress wrote on Tuesday (July 30) . “I never knew I had a choice when it came to labor. It taught me so much & aided my decision in having a natural home birth which my son & I are now forever grateful for.”

The talk host later responded to the kind message.

“You are so welcome,” Lake said. “Overjoyed to hear you had a positive birth experience & a beautiful son!”

Wood and husband Jamie Bell confirmed the birth of their son with a series of tweets earlier this week.

“Wow! What a day. Evan you are my warrior!” Bell wrote. “You never cease to amaze. Thank you for birthing our son so naturally & peacefully. You did it!”
