OHMYGOSSIP — Lily Cole has admitted to being a “workaholic”.
The 30-year-old model and actress has confessed to spending an unhealthy amount of time on her work, but Lily also insists that since giving birth her to her two-year-old daughter Wylde, she has managed to find a better balance in her life.
Lily said: “I’m a self-confessed workaholic and I do like to have different things on the go, but becoming a mum has made me more balanced and disciplined about when I’m working and I make sure I have time with my daughter when I’m not – she’s brought more balance to my life.
“I ensure I have enough quality family time so I can focus on work at other moments.”
Lily explained that motherhood helped to ease some of her work-related pressures.
The British beauty told Psychologies magazine: “It’s great to have hours of doing nothing or just exploring; being with my daughter gives me permission to not have to achieve anything for a period of time – I can just be.”
Lily admitted last year that becoming a mother has been a life-changing experience for her.
The model – who has her daughter Wylde with partner Kwarme Ferreira – said: “Having a baby
is totally life-changing. It’s like
there’s the person I was before, and the person I am afterwards.”
Lily also explained that while she is undecided how many children she wants to have, she doesn’t want a large family.
She said: “I’m one of two children, and that to me feels like a nice number.
“I don’t judge
people who have
more than two but personally I think
it’s quite good to replace yourself on
the planet. I might
have a second, and
I might decide not to have a second at all –
it’s all possible right
now. I might have a second and really feel like I need a third.”
