Kim Cattrall: 'I've been very lonely a lot in life'

Kim Cattrall has revealed that she always wanted to have children but was never in the right situation to become pregnant.

The Sex and the City actress explained that she never had a child because she was either busy with work or wasn't in a relationship.

Cattrall told the Independent: "I've always wanted to have children. That never happened. And I thought, 'Well, I'll do it next year. I'll do it after this film'. And then there was, 'Oh I'm single'.

"There is a feeling you give up a lot on this job, but you have to get a lot back, too. Luckily I have great friends and I have found a tremendous amount of happiness in mentoring young actors. They're like my kids."

The 54-year-old, who has been divorced twice, explained that her busy work schedule has had a negative impact on her relationships.

The Private Lives star added: "You know the price that you pay - not all actors, but this actor - is that I've been very lonely a lot in my life. I've had two marriages and I loved both my husbands very much, but I didn't see very much of them.

"The length of my work days is really hard on relationships. You never see anybody and that's a very tough thing for a woman."
