If I hadn't been a mother, I don't know if I would have been able to bring the same energy that I did into it. It's such a struggle being a single mother. Joan doesn't go about it in the best way, but it is amazing to see her really fighting for her daughter. It's important for kids to see just how hard parents work for them.
I have been widely misquoted today in publications where I have 'stated' that 'it's such a struggle being a single mother.' I'd like to clarify that I was talking about the character of Joan that I play and was not referring to myself, which is obvious from the original interview in the Sunday Times Culture section. I am very fortunate personally to have a lot of help around me, which is not the case for a lot of people.
