“I love to cook. But I'm a bit rubbish. I tend to start something and then dip into a book or have a conversation and come back and everything's burnt.”

“My mother worked when I was growing up, so I was under the impression I'd find it easy to be a working mum. But I found it very hard to be away from my family, even for short periods of time.”

“After 'Wedding Crashers' I was just surprised as to the lack of comedic female material there is. So I had to start working and getting stuff out there for myself.”

“When you're younger, being a redhead is... Well, my two brothers teased me no end.”

“I love religions and find them fascinating, and I find Judaism very beautiful. It's enriched my life enormously.”

“I think there is nothing sexier than laughter lines.”

“What I loved about breast-feeding was that bond of one-on-one time. The serotonin that's released calms you down and connects you to the baby.”

“I breastfed both my kids for two years so, you know it was very tiring emotionally and physically.”

“Women one hundred percent support each other in the movie industry.”

“Am I disappointed occasionally by the lack of irony in some movies? Yes.”

“It's a myth that you can have it all. You can't, but more importantly, I don't think you should want to. It sounds exhausting!”

“Being a mother is by far my greatest accomplishment.”

“I'm happy with the idea of being a mum first and an actress second - I'm perfectly content for people to think of me as a stay-at-home mum, rather than an actress, if that is their perception.”

“You can't underestimate how traumatic divorce is for the children.”

“Family is 100 per cent my top priority.”

“I crashed my boyfriend's birthday when I was 12 years old. He didn't invite me and so I showed up.”

“You can look in the mirror and find a million things wrong with yourself. Or you can look in the mirror and think, 'I feel good, I have my health, and I'm so blessed.' That's the way I choose to look at it.”

“You know, motherhood is my favourite topic in my personal life and I won't shut up about it, but it's not something I want to discuss publicly just because of the amount of attention it draws to a small person who didn't choose to be exposed.”

“I don't think one should incentivise the losing of teeth. I find the idea of a child getting an iPad, or a £20 note, for losing a tooth, utterly abhorrent. Fifty pence, or a pound at most, is what my children can expect from the Tooth Fairy.”

“The most romantic thing a guy has ever done for me is starting a family. That's as romantic as it gets.”
