Los Angeles, Sep 30 (NationPress) Hollywood actress Michelle Pfeiffer has made a delightful announcement. The actress revealed that she became a grandmother for the first time last year.

The 67-year-old star has a 32-year-old daughter, Claudia, and a 31-year-old son, John, with her husband, television writer David E. Kelley. However, she did not specify which of her children welcomed a baby, according to reports from Female First UK.

During her appearance on the SmartLess podcast, she expressed, "I don't have the time or the inclination to delve too deep for too long without being present. I recognize that my time is limited, and I might just reveal here that I became a grandmother last year. I’ve kept it quiet, but it’s pure joy. It’s absurdly wonderful.”

The Marvel star, who will soon appear in her husband's Apple TV+ limited series 'Margo's Got Money Troubles', admitted that had she known about her grandparenthood, she would have cut down on her work commitments sooner.

She added, "Had I known I was going to be a grandmother, I wouldn’t have taken on so many projects. But I appreciate every single one, and interestingly, letting go of the stress around it has liberated me and, in some ways, improved my performance.”

As stated by Female First UK, Pfeiffer has kept her children mostly out of the public eye. She took a hiatus from her career to focus on raising her kids and previously expressed surprise at claims she had 'retired' from acting while simply trying to nurture a family.

The First Lady actress reflected on her choice to step back from Hollywood for nearly five years, as the scrutiny of her family life became increasingly challenging.

Recalling her decision to shield her children, she told The Hollywood Reporter in 2022, "I set limits on my work, only shooting in summer, only in certain locations, and eventually, it became too difficult for anyone to hire me.”

Pfeiffer and Kelley relocated their family away from Los Angeles, and upon her return after five years, she was surprised by the narrative around her career.

She remarked, "I started hearing that I had retired, and I thought, 'No, that's not true.'” The Batman Returns star acknowledged that the challenges of fame intensified when children were involved.
