"I've been very fortunate enough to be in relationships where I've explained that to my partner and they've been ok with that," she previously explained. "Some would say because I came from a very troubled marriage, my parents did not have a good marriage, but I don't think it's that."
Congratulations to Charlize! We're sure she'll be a wonderful mother.
