Renee Zellweger: “I don’t want kids”
Renee Zellweger, 39, says she has no plans to have kids.
“Motherhood has never been an ambition,” she tells London’s The Times. “I never have expectations like, ‘When I’m 19 I’m going to do this, and by the time I’ve hit 25, I’m going to do that’.
“I just take things as they come, each day at a time, and if things happen, all well and good,” she added. “I just want to be independent and be able to take care of myself. Anything else is just gravy.”
Zellweger refused to talk about her brief marriage to country singer Kenny Chesney, but she wasn’t secretive when it came to her reported romance with her Leatherheads director and co-star George Clooney (who was once held at gunpoint).
“I did see a recent magazine article in which George said that he and I had been girlfriend-boyfriend ‘a little bit’,” Zellweger says. “But what the hell is that? ‘A little bit?’ I’m not sure if I should be insulted or not!”
Zellweger — who says she maintains her svelte physique by running “every day” — insists his comments were misconstrued.
“I think he was asked if he liked me and said, ‘A little bit,’” she says. “Don’t you connect me with that man! I’d deny it until I die,” she jokes.
Adds Zellweger, “Actually, who the hell am I kidding? Scrap all that; do connect me with George Clooney. Connect me with him as much as possible!”
