Claire Danes looks gorgeous in the pages of Elle magazine. The “Homeland” star has a lot to make her smile these days. She just became a first-time mom and is enjoying a happy marriage.
Danes spoke about having a child and being a working mom. “I’ve always wanted to have kids, but I’m glad I didn’t until now. When I was thinking about [working and being a mother] originally, I was really nervous about it… I think I would make a lousy stay-at-home mom. It just wouldn’t suit me. I feel so fortunate, in that I’ve had this arrow-straight focus… that I wanted to act.”
The actress also spoke about her husband, Hugh Dancy. “Hugh was just the right partner for me. I got very, very lucky. There’s only so much credit you can take when it just sort of works, you know? And obviously we work hard at maintaining our relationship – that is central to both our lives – but at the same time, it’s just this kind of ease that I can’t really account for.”
