GWYNETH Paltrow loves living in London!
The American actress raises her kids and lives with husband Chris Martin in the British capital.
“I love London – it’s my adopted home,” she told Glamour.
“Being an American woman living in Britain, there are things I’ve had to catch up on, though. Chris had to explain Blue Peter to me!
“In London, the kids and I really take advantage of the city. I have them on the tube, in the museums, in St James’ Park, the theater. I use that city so much — I want them exposed to it.
“I drive the kids to school, I cook. But I have a nanny, so if I need to go to Dubai for Max Factor, then I can.
“It’s hard being married. You go through great times, you go through terrible times. We’re the same as any couple.
“I asked my dad once, ‘How did you and Mum stay married for 33 years?’ And he said, ‘Well, we never wanted to get divorced at the same time’. And I think that’s what happens. When two people throw in the towel at the same time, then you break up, but if one person’s saying, ‘come on, we can do this’, you carry on.
“I’ve learned more about myself by being married than anything else. I hate to say, ‘We’ve got it worked out,’ because you never know what’s going to happen, but we laugh, we’re good friends, we like to do the same stuff.
“I’m a very grounded, homey person and Chris is a very mad scientist, genius songwriter. So I never say ‘Where are you? You should be home by now’. I never place demands on him because I think he’s a really talented man and he’s putting something good into the world.”
