Since becoming a mother to Marlowe, four, Sienna Miller’s stellar acting career has taken a backseat as she devoted time to her daughter. But now the former boho sweetheart is back, starring in upcoming Amazon mystery The Lost City of Z and wowing with her fashion acumen and stunning looks once more on the cover of Allure magazine.
The willowy beauty now lives in New York, where she and ex-fiancé Tom Sturridge co-parent Marlowe, revealing to Allure that they see each time ‘all the time,’ adding: “We do bedtime every day. We felt like as much togetherness as possible would be ideal, and fortunately we really love each other and are best friends, and so that works. It’s not that it’s not complicated, because it is.”
Though Sienna looks stunning in her Allure photoshoot, she reveals that everyday life as a single mother isn’t always so glamourous… “I had an amazing moment the other day where I just heard this ‘Mama!’ from upstairs,” she told the magazine.
“I said, ‘I’m coming, I’m coming.’ And as I got to the landing I just smelled, like, puke. And she’d thrown up basically off the top bunk, so the splatters were like: Pow! Like all four walls. She had the norovirus or whatever. I was like, ‘I’m coming, I’m coming!’ And I skidded on the sick and fell. Whacked my head. Then I get her out of the bunk; she’s crying, covered in sick. I take her to the bathroom, take all her clothes off, and then the dog comes up and starts eating the sick.
“And I get her in the bath and in my bed, and I’m just, like, literally naked, mopping, and crying at midnight. You know, and that’s parenthood. You’re so enriched by it and so fulfilled, but at the same time, I look at these people who just don’t have any responsibility, and it feels like the responsibility is crippling.”
