A choice that she explained in 2020, on Gwyneth Paltrow's podcast. “When you make a film… you belong to them,” she said of the people who gravitate towards cinema. You are there 12 hours a day, for months. You don't have time to do anything else. And I realized that I had entrusted parts of my life to all these people. They took it. I had to take it back and take responsibility for my own life.”

In March 2024, the actress announced the birth of their second child, a boy named Cardinal Madden.
