Just a few weeks after giving birth to twins, Anna Paquin is gracing the cover of the November issue of Red Magazine.
According to Digital Spy
In an interview with Red magazine, Paquin, who confirmed publicly she is bisexual two years ago, admitted some people question how her marriage and sexual orientation are compatible.
“I am a happily married woman and I married a man. I don’t think that negates that aspect of my life, but obviously I wouldn’t be with my husband if I didn’t want to be married to a man,” she explained.
“Some people find it odd that you can identify with a sexual orientation that is not straight and yet be married to someone of the opposite sex. They’re like, ‘Obviously it’s not real if you’re married to a dude’.”
However, she said she does not feel the need to justify her relationship in light of criticism.
“That’s not my problem. I’m like, ‘Okay, if that’s how you feel, there’s nothing I can do about it’. I’m just living my life,” Paquin said.
The 30-year-old also said realising her sexual orientation as a teenager was not an “Oh my God moment”, adding: “It’s just part of who I am.”
And on Female First
Anna Paquin loves the “luxury” of having a nanny.
The ‘True Blood’ actress and husband Stephen Moyer – who has daughter Lilac, 10, and son Billy, 12, from previous relationships – welcomed twins into the world last month and Anna knows she is lucky to be able to afford the help she needs with her family.
She said: “I have the luxury of being able to afford the help I need. I consider having a full-time, reliable job a major blessing. You will never catch me complaining about being employed.
Anna loves the fact she and Stephen get to work together because they are “best friends”.
She told the new issue of Red magazine: “We’re best friends. If you’re going to spend the rest of your life with someone, you want it to be the person you want to hang out with all the time.
“We have a lot in common but, when it comes down to it, if that person isn’t really your buddy as well, for me, I don’t think that would work. And we spend all our time together.
“A lot of people say, ‘Oh, I could never work with my significant other’, but I love getting to go to work with the person I want to spend all my time with.’ “
One of the reasons why Anna loves her husband is because of his “Englishness”.
And in The Belfast Telegraph
Anna Paquin has revealed that she is “not fazed” by nudity.
The Canadian-born actress and new mum, who often bares her body in hit TV series True Blood, said she doesn’t mind stripping off as long as there’s a reason behind it.
“Nudity just doesn’t faze me. If it wasn’t something I was up for, I certainly wouldn’t have got involved,” she told Red magazine.
“I’m sure sometimes it feels like they just take our clothes away because they like taking our clothes away. But in True Blood, it feels creatively motivated. Sex and sexuality is a big part of adult life. Our target audience is not teenagers.”
The magazine goes on sale on October 3rd.
If we come across any more snippets from the interview or any more pictures we will post them on E&SL. It’s great to hear that Anna is healthy and happy and we hope she gets to take her gorgeous babies homes soon!
