She said: ‘I had this opportunity to look at my life outside of my job. And I realized, okay, I need to wake up.
‘I had to look away from my career, from cinema, from wanting to be this type of actor, that type of actor. Or how many awards I would love to get before I die.
‘That’s been my focus for ten years, but I want to make sure that the things I need to do, whether it’s kids, family, changes, relationship changes… well, I realized I need to make changes now. Because I’m a worker bee and that’s why I’ve never wanted a break. Everything was just, wow! What’s next? And it’s only been ten years since I can go, oh, I need to make a little bit of my life. ‘

Giving rare insight into their relationship, the star explained: ‘I had to be public in the past because people were harassing me and my partner.
“My and Zach’s relationship was actually quite private until it became unpleasant, and I could see the toll it was taking on him, us, and our families. And that’s when I spoke up.
‘I think I want to protect anyone I’m with. It’s not nice to know that people are saying the worst things I’ve ever read about someone I love.
‘So that was necessary. I needed to talk about it. “I think any relationship in this spotlight is going to be stressed.”
