Rachel Weisz: Motherhood is sexy
March 5, 2008
Definitely, Maybe star Rachel Weisz recently spoke to The Sun about how motherhood has made her feel sexier than ever.
“I feel sexier after having a baby. I think you feel a lot more confident and much more appreciative of your body and what it’s capable of doing. I’ve got a lot more respect for it,” Weisz, 36, says.
Weisz and her fiancé, director Darren Aronofsky are parents to 1 1/2 year-old Henry Chance. The actress says it took her over a year to lose all the baby weight. “When I stopped breastfeeding I gained some. It took me more than a year to get back to where I was.”
Weisz says she feels “a very powerful love” for her son. “I think every mother gets panicked and thinks something is going to happen. I put my hand on his back and stick my head in the crib so I can hear his breath. Or I tickle his feet and get him to move. I think it’s natural for a mother to fear the worst. Nature put that there so we protect our children.”
Are there more children in her future? “I’ve got no plans to have another baby. I can’t imagine having another one now. But never say never…”
Got something to say?
