Your relationship with your fans and the media is ever-changing. Have both parties become more mean-spirited over the years?
I'm not really sure because I don't read any press. I don't think it's healthy. I feel like I'm very open in terms of talking about certain things, but when it comes to talking about my relationships, that's pretty much the only thing that I won't put on display in any way because it's one thing that's sacred. It's between my husband and myself, and there's just no reason to give details about domestic life in that way. It just goes against my instincts to do it. Chris is superprivate, and he really is not into it, so I have to also be respectful of him.

Photographers followed you when you were pregnant and this appeared to upset Chris, but you seemed to accept it as part of the deal. Was there conflict between you two over how to deal with it?
Well, yeah. [sighs] I don't think you can underestimate how a husband feels when his eight-months-pregnant wife is being chased by a pack of men. It's not great. [laughs] It obviously throws up a certain protective instinct and a lot of anger about it. It's difficult because it is part of being a famous person, and you get this incredible life and these incredible opportunities. But then you also have these jerks sitting outside your house 24 hours a day and following you, which is a terrible, terrible feeling, and it really can wind you up. It's an ever-changing dynamic, like, How do I deal with this today? How do I try not to get upset about it?
