Gwyneth Paltrow talks to W about more children — including a possible adoption

Actress and celebrity baby in her own right, Gwyneth Paltrow, 34, talks to W Magazine about adoption and the possibility of having more children in the future. Gwyn and her musician husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, 30, have daughter Apple Blythe Alison, 3, and Moses, 16 months tomorrow.

On the possibility of having more children:

I don’t think so. Well,definitely not right away. I have a dream version where I think, maybein four years I’ll have two in a row really quickly again — how fabulousto have a whole bunch of them! But then at that point, when everyone’spotty-trained and sleeping through the night, are you really going togo back? I’d also like to work now a bit. My husband really wants toadopt. So I don’t know; I’m sort of open for anything.

I like Gwyneth but this is the worst picture I have ever seen of her! She is so pretty! Shame on W magazine for using this picture.

I just came across your site and i think it is VERY CREEPY!!!

What you are doing is wrong.

A blog about celebrity babies? How dare you invade peoples’ privacy like that.

they did not ask to have blogs created about them.

go find something positive to do with your life.

Oooof. Bad look, Gwyn. And I love her, too. Anyway, I think it’s great that they’re considering adoption and/or having more biological children. I have no doubt all their kids will be happy and worldly!

I agree. She normally just looks so gorgeous. I like how adoption has become the new black

i agree, i don’t like that pic at all!!! Do all celebs have to jump on the adoption train?? I am all for adopting, of course. But it seems the “celeb” thing to do for some reason!

Oh yes, very unflattering picture of her! I honestly had no idea who it was until I read the caption!

Anyhoo, it sounds like she isn’t as thrilled about the idea of adoption as Chris seems to be, but I hope they do because that would allow one more innocent child to have a future they might otherwise never know.

Hopefully their next biological child will look like HER! Chris has some strong genes!

As much as adoption is great these celebrities turn it more into a publicity stunt for them. And she looks terrible in that cover shot.

I LOVE the photo! It’s suppose to be etheral and goddess-like. W is a high fashion magazine. This is an editorial shot, not a commerical shot. It’s not suppose to look like the cover of InStyle.

I thought she’d said she was done having kids? I know, never say never…

- Mimi on August 8th, 2007

Good GOD, what did they do to her?? That has to be the most horrendous “glamour” photo of a celebrity I’ve ever seen. And to think she’s posing for the cover of a fashion bible and is supposed to look immaculate. I’d be furious if I were her.

Anyway, she did say she was done having kids after Moses, but at the time she said it she also said Moses was not cooperating sleep-wise and she was completely wiped-out. Now that he may be getting more compliant, she’s probably thinking differently.

I don’t celebs are treating sdoption as the new black.You have to think about in the early days of Hollywood, some of those people adopted kids but it wasn’t talked about.Even regular people weren’t so open about adopting.Now it’s not so uncommon to discuss it and I think that’s wonderful

- Renee on August 8th, 2007

I also thought she said she was done having kids. Guess she changed her mind. I hope she adopts next time.

The w magazine article is quite good. The cover photo though is a bit overdone in photo- shop. It seems like she is a different person. She is much more beautiful in her natural looks.

Im sure the children who are being adopted like it even more.

About Gwyneth, I frankly don’t see her adopting. Sometimes I get the impression she says things that she thinks people want to hear or that might make her seem more interesting.

just my opinion.

On her growing brood: “Maybe in four years, I’ll have two in a row really quick again. But then at that point, when everyone’s potty-trained and sleeping through the night, are you really going to go back?

On her future adoption: “My husband really wants to adopt. So I don’t know, I’m sort of open for anything.”
========================================
Kind of sounds like she isn’t too sure she wants any more.

- cece on August 8th, 2007

Even if someone is in a glamour shot shouldn’t they still look like the same person.

- Loralee on August 8th, 2007

I wouldn’t have recognized her if I hadn’t been told it was Gwyneth! She’s naturally so beautiful and in this pic, not only does she look like someone else, she looks pretty awful.

Unrecognizable and horrid pic? I can’t believe she’s letting W put this out there.

I bet she and Chris do have another kid in a few years (bio or adopted).

- Charity on August 8th, 2007

Sounds like her hubby is more into adoption than her. Anyway maybe within next 2 years they will have anther kid. She looks different in this pic.
