On her fizzled out marriage with Ryan Reynolds:
“Relationships are complicated. Being married is a living process, every moment. I think I was not fully aware of the peaks and valleys … I was not ready to hunker down and do the job. We were both very busy. We spent much time apart. It was difficult.”

On the positives and negatives to her separation:
“I miss not having a partner, a confidant, but it’s pretty exciting to have more time to learn and know myself better.”

On not regretting her marriage to Reynolds:
“It seemed like a very romantic thing to do, and it was. It was even the best thing I’ve ever done.”
