Anna Friel balances her career
Posted on | September 4, 2009 |
Anna Friel will not give up her career for motherhood. The “Land of the Lost” actress - who raises four-year-old daughter Gracie Ellen Mary with her partner of nine years, “Harry Potter” actor David Thewlis - adores being a mother but would be reluctant to quit Hollywood to focus on family life. She said, “I love being a mother so much, but this is also an important time in my career where things are finally happening for me. I don’t ever want to regret not making the most of it, so I bring my daughter to work with me. It’s the only way to make it work.”
However, the 33-year-old British beauty admits she finds being a working mother a challenge. She explained, “I had Gracie with me on the set while I was filming ‘Land of the Lost’ and it was weird explaining why her mummy was in a cage! But she loved it! David and I both had such traditional English childhoods that it is surreal to find ourselves raising our daughter in Hollywood. But we always tell her, ‘It’s only pretend.’” (Showbiz)
