How to use mum in a sentence?

  1. Next Harry:

    I have some of my closest friends here over the years and I came here in '97, '98 straight after my mum died, so it was a nice place to get away from it all. But now I feel deeply connected to this place and to Africa.

  2. Gleb Smolkin:

    We spoke to her mum but not about the news, just in general, because it’s her mom, she’s not our coach. She’s just Diana’s mom, and she supports us. She’s here with us.

  3. Matt Mazzoncini:

    I just think of him... being all alone and not understanding... where mum and dad are... and that's really hard, he's been through a lot... we are the only parents he's ever known.

  4. Tracey Emin:

    I have had the title for about 15 years but I have never used it. A couple of years ago, my mum died, and I have cried so much in all my life and I thought this is the time to use this title, essentially the show is about big emotional moments in my life, good or bad, hell or happy, this kind of combination of this big emotional churning, reworking, awakening, a big emotional timebomb that has been let off in the gallery.

  5. Nicole Trunfio:

    When I saw the cover of me breastfeeding, which was unplanned and just natural, I teared up and thought, ‘Wow this is such a special moment where my worlds have collided’, there’s the maternal side of me, who so loves being a mum, and the professional side, who’s so passionate about her career.
