Katherine Heigl Didn’t Adopt to be Trendy!
Posted by Adam
KATHERINE Heigl did not adopt daughter Naleigh because it was “trendy”.
The Killers star says she is “very grateful” to have the 10-month-old baby in her life, and admits her mother’s decision to adopt Korean child Meg when she was little helped her inform her choice.
“It’s so funny,” she said. “My mom and I joke about it when people say ‘You’re just doing it because it’s trendy’.
“My mum says ‘Well, I’m trendier than everybody because I was doing it in the 1970s when I adopted your sister.’
“I’m very grateful for this little being in my life. I’m very grateful she’s my daughter. I’m so grateful we found each other.”
Discussing her husband Josh Kelley, Katherine admits she is surprised she still loves him after more than four years of married life.
“I’m still so infatuated with him,” she said. “We’ve been together four and a half years so you’d think by now it would start to feel a little bit calm but I still think he’s so hot and so sexy and he’s a great dad.”
Heigl also admitted she finds it difficult to balance her career with motherhood.
“It’s difficult but it’s like any working mom I think you have to make some compromises,” she said.
“It’s easier said than done, but I knew that I wanted to keep working, I love what I do but it’s really hard to leave her — I feel horrible.”
