Brigitte Nielsen has called out the sexual double standards when it comes to having babies at a later age after she was criticized for having a baby at the age of 54. The mother of five gave birth to a daughter named Frida on June 22.

She told ITV's Good Morning Britain: "There's definitely a double standard because it seems like men in their sixties, seventies, eighties, and even nineties, they have children and no-one raises an eyebrow."
