The topic of motherhood is not easy for Charlize Theron. A 42-year-old woman is raising two adopted children alone - six-year-old Jackson and two-year-old Augusta. In an interview with the American ELLE, the actress spoke about the troubles she had to go through before becoming a mother.

“I suffered a lot when I started the path of a foster mother. My most painful memories are connected with this ",
- admitted the star, the first few attempts of which turned out to be failures.
“There were so many situations that didn't work. I managed to get used to these children, I had hopes connected with them, which collapsed at one moment,”
- recalls Theron.
“I waited so long for the moment when my Jackson was born, so I wanted to become a mother that at some point I felt certain symptoms. My chest began to ache, as if I were pregnant. But I understood: these are just mind games. When motherhood takes up so much space in the head, it crowds out the rest, and even the body begins to think that it is pregnant."
- shared Charlize.
“I've had bad days. I've made mistakes. I went through trials. This is too much for one person. But after six years of motherhood, I can say for sure: I haven’t regretted my decision for a single day,”
- admitted the star.
