Elsa Pataky admits Chris Hemsworth was 'really young to be starting a family'
Elsa Pataky has been married to Australian actor Chris Hemsworth for seven years, and is getting very candid about the sometimes "complicated" aspects of sharing a life with one of Hollywood's most in-demand stars. The Spanish actress, 41, covers and opened up to the magazine about motherhood, her marriage, and satisfying life in the rolling hills of her adopted hometown of Byron Bay.
On how motherhood changed her, the Fate of the Furious star explained, "It's interesting how you can be a successful woman who has been working her whole life, and then you have kids and suddenly your career isn't as important and you don't appreciate it as much, and you just think, 'What am I doing? I have been fighting all my life for this and now I don't know if I really want it?'" "It's unfair in a way, because I don't think men go through that," continued Pataky, who shares daughter India Rose, 5, and twin sons Sasha and Tristan, 3, with Hemsworth. "But when you become a mum, everything that was important goes into second position. You change a lot, you mature, you see life differently and learn so many things."

The family has made a comfortable home in NSW, despite being a world away from Hollywood. And even with the demands of raising three little ones, Pataky says she's never regretted the choice to nestle in for a simpler life.
"I always tell people, don't be scared of moving out of your comfort zone because if you are, you'll miss out on so much life. Almost every person I've met who has had the courage to leave everything and have another experience, they have never regretted it. Just go, leave everything, who cares what is going to happen? You'll have to start again? Great!"
