Charlize Theron Opens Up About Motherhood

Charlize Theron recently opened up about how she does want to be a mom, but is not in any hurry.

The actress sat down with the magazine Marie Claire UK (May '09) dishing: "I've always known that I wanted to be a mom. I love children.”

The South African actress added: “I've always loved children. But I'm not like, 'Oh my god, I really must have kids right now.' I've never felt this pressing urge that some biological clock is ticking.”

Though she looks forward to motherhood, Charlize has admitted in the past that she’s not too keen on pregnancy: “Getting pregnant doesn’t excite me, but having kids does. I know I’ll be a mother one day. It’s just that I don’t really want to look like a whale. But I’m sure the idea of something growing inside you is pretty powerful.”

Theron has been in an eight year relationship with Irish actor Stuart Townsend. The two are not officially married but consider themselves husband and wife.
