Hilary Swank thinks motherhood is a "gift".
Hilary Swank is loving motherhood
The 49-year-old actress has been focused on the challenge of motherhood since giving birth to her ten-month-old twins, daughter Aya and son Ohm.
Hilary - who stars in the new drama film 'Ordinary Angels' - told 'Extra': "So much of acting is empathising and really stepping in people’s shoes and seeing through their eyes.
"I mean, I haven’t done a movie since having my babies with the strike and everything, so we’ll see what it brings, but I just think that having babies makes you feel deeper everything. You just ... I think it’s such a gift. I don’t know how else to say it."
Hilary also revealed the inspiration behind the names of her children.
She said: "We just met beautiful people in Lebanon and Syrian refugees, and so we thought this is a beautiful name and Ohm is a universal sound."
Earlier this month, Hilary confessed that life with ten-month-old twins is "exhausting".
The Hollywood star - who has been married to Philip Schneider since 2018 - also described parenthood as the "most extraordinary thing in the world".
During an appearance on 'The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon', Hilary explained: "It's the best in the whole wide world. Yes, it's more joy, more fun and more exhausting.
"It's more everything than I ever thought it would be. It's more glorious, it's the most extraordinary thing in the world."
Asked if her twins were already talking, Hilary replied: "My daughter ... the first thing she started ever saying, she sounded like a morning dove. Like just a beautiful little morning dove. And then it turned into a growl. She growls, but like really commits ... [Now] she goes: ‘Hi, hi, hi,’ to everything."
