Anne Hathaway tends to keep her son, Jonathan, out of the public eye, but that hasn’t stopped her from opening up about how her only child with husband Adam Shulman, who they welcomed in 2016, has changed her life.
From mom guilt to sobriety, take a look at the Oscar winner’s best quotes about motherhood.
Bye to Booze
“I’m going to stop drinking while my son is in my house just because I don’t totally love the way I do it,” Hathaway admitted on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in January 2019. “He’s getting to an age where he really does need me all the time in the mornings. I did one school run one day where I dropped him off at school, I wasn’t driving, but I was hungover, and that was enough for me. I didn’t love that one.”

Tone Deaf
“He just hates my voice,” the actress admitted on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in January 2019. “He hates it. I’m not allowed to sing in my own house anymore.”

Insta Regret
“I had never posted a photo of my son, and I decided to post a shot of the back of his head, and almost as soon as I’d done it, I wished that I hadn’t,” the Les Miserablés star revealed in an April 2017 Jezebel interview. “I felt like I had broken some kind of a seal in inviting people into my life. And even though I felt as though I had done it in as protective a way as I could, even though it was a moment I was incredibly proud of, I don’t know that I’ll ever do it again.”

Mute the Mom Guilt
“When Johnny was a week old and I was holding him and I was in the ninth level of ecstasy, I just all of a sudden thought, ‘Mommy guilt is invented nonsense,’” the actress said in an April 2017 Elle cover story. “We’re encouraged to judge each other, but we should be turning our focus to the people and institutions who should be supporting us and currently aren’t.”

Key Questions
“I’m happy when things are simple,” the new mom revealed to Metro in May 2017. “Since having a kid, I find it a lot easier to do that. The day begins with a checklist: Is he breathing? Is he healthy? Is he growing? Is he thriving? If I get four yeses it’s really hard to upset my day.”
