Elsa Pataky is opening up about her marriage to Chris Hemsworth and how the public’s perception of their relationship doesn’t actually match how it is in real life.
“It’s funny that people think of us as a perfect couple,” the 44-year-old actress told the Australian outlet body+soul. “No way. It’s been ups and downs, and we still keep working at the relationship. I think a relationship is constant work. It’s not easy.”
Elsa said her relationship with Chris, 37, is stronger because of their struggles. She said, “I always try to see the positives of things.”
In the interview, Elsa also talked about the impact that having kids had on her life.
“I remember feeling a bit lost when I had India,” she said. “I thought my life was going to be the same [when I had kids] and I would keep working. But I couldn’t. Chris would come home and say, ‘How was your day?’ And I didn’t feel proud to say: I’m just a mum. But you should. Because it’s the hardest but greatest job in the world.”
Last week, Chris was spotted at the beach in a skintight wetsuit. Go see the new photos!
