BRITAIN: The Brit star, whose US show Pushing Daisies was recently axed, has a three-year-old daughter, Gracie, with Harry Potter actor David Thewlis.

She said: "I'd be a liar if I said it was easy. You just have to keep going. If you stop, you're like, 'Oh God, it's too overwhelming'. And believe me, I've had my fair share of those moments."

The 32-year-old regularly jets between her homes in London and Los Angeles.

The sleepless nights were at their worst when she was filming Goal! in Spain when Gracie was just a baby, the beauty told Closer magazine.

She added: "The ground was moving and I felt I was going to faint. I was still breastfeeding, but then I'd get to the point where I couldn't sleep when I did get to bed. Eventually, a doctor gave me a sleeping tablet and I slept for a weekend."
