‘I've never been so worried in my life about making sure that something I care about more than I've ever cared in my life is safe and intact,’ she said.

The 39-year-old is mum to 18-month-old daughter Olive and is expecting a second daughter with art consultant Will Kopelman.

‘The first time you’re scared because you don’t know what’s happening,’ she said. ‘The second time is hard because you’re tired because you have a toddler.’

Workaholic Drew says that she has cute back since having children.

‘I don’t work as much,’ she said. ‘I know I’m prolific and I take on a lot of diverse different projects, but I spend a lot of time with my kids. I think that’s the most important thing.’

Drew says she tries to have a good sense of humour about motherhood and how much she learns from raising a family.

‘I try to have a sense of humor about how (much) you need to learn and tackle, and how to remain fun-loving and not, like, uptight because there’s so much to care about and to learn about.’
