The Oscar-winning actress, who has two children with hubby Keith Urban, Sunday Rose, 5, and Faith, 3, and two with former flame Tom Cruise, Isabella, 21, and Connor, 17, says she no longer feels the need to take risks now that she has kids to consider.
“I feel the desire to stay alive now,” she said.
“I just feel like I’m in the world right now.
“There have been times when I haven’t felt in the world, when I haven’t cared whether I was going to be here or not, so my relationship with being on the earth was probably not as intense. And right now, there’s an intensity – I want to be here.”
