Keira Knightley is featured on the September 2015 issue of ELLE magazine. In her interview, Keira stated: "I was heavily pregnant, I couldn't drink—what is the point of having a thirtieth birthday if I couldn't get phenomenally drunk? But my husband took over,arranged a lovely lunch at one of my favorite restaurants, 20 of us, and they were all being so sweet, like, 'Look, you can have a great time and be sober!'
And it's fine apart from the fact that they started drinking at about one. Then they came back to our house,they'd covered it in balloons that said my name and happy birthday and all that and they got completely obliterated. They were there until two or three in the morning, absolutely drunk, and I was there eight months pregnant, completely sober. So it was lovely, but it wasn't what I'd imagined a thirtieth birthday was going to be."
As for motherhood (and the name of her daughter), Ms. Knightley divulged, "The love thing is astonishing. It's a very primal, primal love. That's quite extraordinary. And the ability to have no sleep and continue going. It's not pleasant, I never thought that I could actually do it for the amount of time that I've done it.
Also, I have to say, as a woman, you hate certain parts of your body. You go through those periods where you look in the mirror and you think, Oh, if only I had different legs or arms or whatever. You go through pregnancy and labor and then feeding the kid and you go, ‘Wow, my body is totally amazing, and I'm never going to not like it again, because it did this, and this is f*cking extraordinary.’ Oh, and the baby's name? It's Edie.”
