Posted Monday April 6, 2009 6:40 PM GMT

She’s a hard working, award winning actress with little free time, but Charlize Theron recently opened up about how she does want to be a mom, but is not in any hurry.

The “Hancock” actress sat down with the magazine, “Marie Claire,” dishing: "I've always known that I wanted to be a mom. I love children.”

The South African actress added: “I've always loved children. But I'm not like, 'Oh my god, I really must have kids right now.' I've never felt this pressing urge that some biological clock is ticking.”

Meanwhile, Theron is currently in a relationship with Irish actor Stuart Townsend. The two have been dating since the early 2000’s and, although the two have not been officially married, they consider themselves husband and wife.
