General Hospital News – Donna Mills Wanted a Child
She wanted a child and in spite of facing much criticism due to the fact that she didn’t have a child in her earlier life so she went for it and it was successful. She is now the mother of an 18-year-old model and influencer named Chloe. Mills went on to detail her experience in her latest project, Nope which is a film with Jordan Peele, Keke Palmer and Daniel Kaluuya.
Mills noted about the criticism, “I didn’t feel that it was selfish. I felt it was the opposite because now I would have the time to devote to a child. I’ve done things that I’ve wanted to do, and so I knew that I could have a lot to give a child and I wanted to do it. I was jealous every time I saw a kid run-up to its mommy.” She continued, “I knew my life wasn’t going to be complete until I had a child in it.”
GH Spoilers – Donna Mills Talks About Being Focused On Her Career
Mills detailed, “I was very focused on my career. I was very driven in my career. So it just kept going on and on and I wasn’t really thinking about having a child or having a family or anything, so, you know, I got to be a little bit older and I looked around and I went ‘Oh! Wait a minute, it may be too late.’
But that yearning was there. The yearning grew bigger as I grew older.” She added, “As wonderful as my career was, as wonderful as my life was, there was a big hole.” She added, “I didn’t want to resent the time that I would have to give. So, for me, it worked out beautifully. So I hope for a lot of women that they can have a career and then take some off and have children rather than try and do it all at once. Boy, it’s hard.”
Mills played Madeline Reeves on General Hospital and Abby Ewing on Knots Landing.
