Crash star Thandie Newton has revealed she “took back” her life when she became a mum.
Thandie, 36, is married to screenwriter Ol Parker, and they have two daughters Ripley, eight, and Nico, four.
She said: “Becoming a mum was the single most profound, self-adjusting moment in my life.”
She added: “I birthed myself.”
Talking about her pregnancy, she said: “It’s like I took back my life.”
She added: “I took back the essence of who I am.”
Thandie, who recently starred in the Guy Ritchie flick RocknRolla, admitted that she named her older daughter after Sigourney Weaver’s character in Alien.
Asked if the rumour was true, she said: “Oh, yeah. Wouldn’t you? She is, like, the woman: kicks a**, saves the world with a kid under one arm and a huge weapon in the other.”
