'It was challenging but it's been so lovely and I have lots of support.
'Babies are adaptable and I've always said a baby shouldn't come in and change someones life completely you should all adapt to each other. Which is exactly what we have done.
'We are both relaxed parents so it's really flowed and been beautiful.'
The theater star admitted 'there are ups and downs' though of parenthood but she finds it 'so rewarding' learning each day.
She continued: 'I have a lot to learn still. There's no textbook to being a parent so I'm learning each day and it's literally just going with the flow of the child.

'Being a mother has been amazing I won't sit here and say everything is absolutely rosie because of sleep deprivation, but it is just adjusting to a new life.'

'It's all about chilling and taking it as easy as possible. Next year looks so busy with lots of projects but I will be taking a few weeks off to be just be a mum because I want that time,' she added.
