Minnie Driver sat down with The Independent to dish the dirt on her pregnancy. She was happy to talk about just about anything … except the baby’s daddy.
All she was willing to divulge is that he’s English, “sort of in the same business,” and “really busy.” He’s also definitely not her friend Craig Zolezzi.
“Craig’s not the dad! He’s my great friend and he’s been so cool about it,” she said. “I want to shield the baby’s dad as much as I can because it wasn’t his choice to get roped into all this stuff. It’ll come out in time and there’ll be some other bump people will be interested in and I’ll have this baby and get on with my life.”
She confirmed that the pregnancy was unplanned, but that she couldn’t be happier about it.
“This was an unplanned pregnancy, but it’s been very happily received by everyone. Which is great. It’s something I’ve wanted to do my whole life; I can’t believe I’ve waited this long.”
Something she’s not in any hurry to do is get married.
“Definitely not in the near future. It’s not important to me. I don’t think a piece of paper lends itself to the idea of being a good parent and I want to be a good parent,” she explained.
She’s also still deciding whether to give birth in the United Kingdom or the United States.
“A big part of me wants my child to be English. My family are here [in the UK] and I’m sure I’ll move back here one day. It’s just that my work, and the opportunities I’ve had, have been so varied and wonderful in the States that I’ve just followed my nose really.
“There’s an ease living in America, and you’re judged far more harshly in Britain for your artistic endeavors. But, obviously politically, in America, it’s a … bloody mess.”
Sounds like Minnie’s got a lot to think about!
