Gwyneth Paltrow has decided Hollywood is no good for her children and will move them back to England.
The Oscar-winning actress is making sure there is no chance of her daughter Apple, 9, and son Moses, 7, turning into Hollywood horrors and said she has no plans to try and establish herself as the next Oprah Winfrey back in the States.
The 41-year-old admitted the move was an “experiment” and she now plans on bringing them back to England in a couple of years along with hubby and Coldplay singer, Chris Martin.
Paltrow said: “I don’t want my children to be teenagers in LA. No way. I am looking at this move to America like two years, three years tops – then we will go back. It’s part of my parenting philosophy that children should get the opportunity to reinvent themselves at a few points in their childhood to see where their strengths and weaknesses lie, and to experience living in different cultures. It’s an experiment.”
In the rather frank interview with Red magazine, out November 6, she added: “I feel the work-life balance of a woman should be exactly what feels right to her. It doesn’t matter what they think.”
The star of Sliding Doors and Shakespeare in Love lived in England for a decade before heading to the States, and called the capital her “adoptive home.”
She said: “I love London – it’s my favourite city in the world. I love my house and my life there. But in California, I have the girls I grew up with and my family. I’ve got a real posse. I don’t know, there was something about turning 40 and feeling like I needed to go home for a year or so.”
The star has also shelved plans to have a third kid with the Coldplay frontman after being haunted by the memory of diapers.
