A former US presidential aspirant, Hillary Rodham Clinton, has changed her twitter bio after being prompted by award winning author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

Hillary’s twitter bio had read:

“Wife, Mom. Grandma, Women+kids advocate, FLOTUS, Senator, SecState, Hair icon, pantsuit aficionado, 2016 presidential candidate. Tweets from Hillary signed –H”

But now reads:

“2016 Democratic Nominee, SecState, Senator, hair icon. Mom, Wife, Grandma x2, lawyer, advocate, fan of walks in the woods & standing up for our democracy.”

 

Adichie had asked Hillary the question why her bio started with “wife” during an interview session on April 22nd as part of the 2018 PEN World Voices Festival in the US.

Adiche asked  “…Your twitter account the first word that describes you is "wife" and then I think its "mom" and then "grandmother" and when I saw that I have to confess that I felt just a little bit upset and then I went and I looked at your husband’s twitter account the first word was not "husband" and I wanted to ask first of all if this was your choice, if this was something you wanted to do or something that  maybe somebody thought will be a good idea for the campaign?”

The former first lady had said she will change her Bio.
