New interview
Posted on 06 July, 2008 | No Comments
The Sunday Times interviewed Uma for their July 6, 2008, issue and I have added the article to our press archive. It’s a sweet article about love and life in general and her new engagment :heart:
“Oh, come on. I look my age, and I don’t mind. Everyone looks their age – some just look a little bit more fantasy. Being in my late thirties is fine with me. Maybe when 40 hits, the penny will drop and you just hate life. But so far, so good.”
“I didn’t feel awkward, I was awkward. It’s such a clich?? ??, but it’s a truism that tall, gangly women who end up all right later in life are always ugly children. I was funny-looking. I mean, look at my hands. Imagine having these hands at 12! By the time I was 13, I was easily 5ft 10in. Can you imagine? That’s a mess.”
“Oh, yes. People basically said, ‘Sayonara.’ Obviously, I was in my prime, at the top, and that shut it all down. But I wanted to shut it down. I wanted to have a family more than I wanted another 10 jobs.”
“You learn that the first failure isn’t the end. I thought I’d seen the end of my career 10 times over. I’ve experienced them as death blows. What’s nice – after numerous efforts, successes, failures, losses, professional and personal – is to actually accept you’re not going to ace your life. You suffer, then you get on with it. You may spend three months in bed, but, eventually, you’re going to have to get up.”
