London, Dec 2 (IANS) Hollywood actress Natalie Portman has revealed she is longing to become a mother and is always thinking about having kids.
The 28-year-old feels she has grown up and is finally responsible enough to settle down and start a family, reports contactmusic.com.

“I feel like I’m coming into my womanhood, and I’m less afraid or maybe I’m just getting old. I think about having kids, but I think you can’t plan for that sort of thing. It’s not like you can work at it,” she said.

The star recently played a “strong” and maternal woman in the war drama “Brothers”, alongside Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal and said she has reconsidered her views on motherhood since starring in the movie.

“It was such a fantastic opportunity because so many parts written for females my age are just like the cute, girlish love interest. To get to play a real woman who’s really strong and a good mother was really a great opportunity. It was not that challenging to be mother-ish because I have the most maternal mom in the world. So I’ve had a role model for my entire life,” she said.
