Jennifer Lawrence: I identify as a stay-at-home mom

Actress Jennifer Lawrence opens up about motherhood, marriage, and balancing a quiet home life with her demanding film career on a new podcast.

"That's me. I identify as a stay-at-home mom. But I am obviously working. - Jennifer Lawrence"

Los Angeles, Jan 14

Actress Jennifer Lawrence, who has a son, Cy, and a second baby born last year with husband Cooke Maroney, said she is only busy during the hectic press tours for her movies, and for the rest of her time, she enjoys a quiet life.

Speaking on the Smartless podcast, Lawrence said: "That's me. I identify as a stay-at-home mom. But I am obviously working.

"I'm not used to being busy like this. I normally have a busy like three months while I'm filming, but even in that sense, it's calm because there is nothing else to do. I just go to work, I do that, I come home, I sleep, and then I do it again. And then, like, two weeks while you promote - it is hectic."

However, the actress said that she won't do interviews after 9 PM because she is ready for bed, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

She said: "Oh. I'm in bed. Kindle is lit until like 9:15. And then I don't even have, like, Kindle light on normally by 9:15."

And over the Christmas period, Jennifer turned down an invitation to a party because it started at late and she had no desire to be hungover around her children.

She said: "You can't be hungover with a nine-month-old. Even a three-year-old is just not an option."

The 35-year-old actress revealed she and Cooke have found the secret to keeping their marriage "alive".

Lawrence told how she and Cooke are total "opposites", but she has learned to adapt since having children.

She said: "I married somebody who is the opposite of me. He is so organised. He's an anchor.

"Everything is ordered. I have to keep the closet doors closed, and I have the little jobs that I work really hard to do... I get it now, I get it. [The kids are] on a very strict schedule. You know, it's like breakfast: 7:30.

"He's good at keeping it. But we've learned to keep our marriage alive, I have a 15-minute wiggle room."

Jennifer cited having attention deficit disorder (ADD) as to why she struggles with tight timing.

She said: "I think I should go to, like, occupational therapy for that."

"I identify as a stay-at-home mom." Must be nice to have that choice because of millions in the bank. For most Indian mothers, whether they work outside or not, they *are* full-time homemakers with no "hectic press tours" to break the routine. Perspective matters.

The 15-minute wiggle room comment about her marriage is actually a great piece of advice! So many couples here fight over punctuality. Adapting and allowing that little flexibility, like she does, can save a lot of arguments. Smart.

Interesting to hear her talk openly about ADD. Mental health awareness is growing in India too, but there's still stigma. When public figures speak about it, it helps normalise the conversation for everyone.

Kind of funny and true! "You can't be hungover with a nine-month-old." Try dealing with a houseful of relatives during Diwali with a toddler! 😅 Her life might be glamorous but some parenting truths are the same everywhere.

Respectfully, calling herself a stay-at-home mom feels a bit out of touch. She has nannies, chefs, and assistants most likely. A real stay-at-home parent in India manages cooking, cleaning, kids, and budgeting often without any help. It's not the same.
