Drew Barrymore Interview from her heart and soul

The life of Drew has never been easy. She always stood out as hard and stubborn nature, thirst for freedom. Relationship with her mother also did not become close. She had to go to rehab, to deprive her mother maternity rights. But all these problems has not stopped her to catch happiness not only in in professional but also in personal life.

Drew Barrymore recently became a mother and now she is pregnant again. What she thinks about her motherhood and how she is getting to educate her own children – she told to Oprah Winfrey.

Oprah: Marriage with Will became third in your life. How it differs from the previous ones?

Drew: When I was getting married to Will, I acted like an adult. It was not a youthful whim, was not wandering blindly. Previously, I was worrying all time – meet I man I need or not. When will this meeting. As Charlotte from “Sex and the City” – “I'm 35, I'm looking for him all my life, and where is he?” I was like her – thought what I was guilty, looking for the source of my problems inside of me. And then I realized that I need to get away from my guilt if I want to be happy now, at present. I thought, if I get lucky and 'my prince' find me, I do not need to rush him. I just need to live, enjoy my solitude. I just wanted a little slow the pace of my life. I did everything for myself and not for someone else, and eventually found the happiness.

Oprah: Your past was quite turbulent. Someday your daughter Olive will grow and read on the Internet it all – about your passion for drugs, bisexual relationships and so on. How do you explain it to her?

Drew: I will try to bring her so that she understand me. She must know you do not be ashamed of the way of your life if it eventually leads you to things that you are proud of. The fact that in my childhood nobody was not interested in me, as I lived, and so around me was a complete chaos. I do not regret the past, but I will try to do everything possible for Olive has different childhood and another life. I have very difficult relationship with my mother. For example, she was not at my wedding with Will – we as two adult women discussed it and concluded that it would be better. Something inside of me does not allow me to treat to my mother as well as to all other people on this planet. I had to delimit. But I believe that our relationship with Olive will be different.

Oprah: What did your childhood teach you? What kind of mother do you want to be for your little daughter?

Drew: I'll always come for her to school at three o'clock, the most important thing. Everything will be different. I think that as a child I always wanted my parents come for me, I was waiting for them. Wait at school – it's awful . Our life offers a variety of obstacles, but I think children should never fear that parents will not come for them. They need someone in whom they will be sure and whom they can trust.

Oprah: You know that our culture is simply obsessed with fashion magazines and articles about beauty, who lost, who are not lost after birth. How quickly did you lost weight after childbirth and what you need to lose weight? It is also so important for you?

Drew: Not at all, I do not want to be like squirrel in a wheel, it's so pathetic. I want to be healthy physically and mentally, so I do not care about weight issues, I'm not worried about the hairstyle or clothes, but I know that my husband loves me for what I make him smile. I can dance funny, my behaviour can be moronic, but if he is smiling with me, I feel like the most beautiful woman in the world. Then I'm happy.

Oprah: You were only 14 when you wrote an autobiography “Little Girl Lost”. Did you find 'her'?

Drew: Yes, I think so. The last five years of my life were wonderful, and I feel that now everything is ok. It took me six years to come to this happiness, but I'm glad that today in my life things are going that way.
