Gwyneth Paltrow on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross

Gwyneth Paltrow tells Jonathan Ross about her diet and her daughter



This week on BBC One's Friday Night With Jonathan Ross, Academy Award-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow explains why she stopped making movies.

She tells Jonathan: "I had my daughter and was so much in love with her that I couldn't bear to leave and go back to work."

And on her daughter's name, Apple, Gwyneth says: "It just emerged, we thought it was unique but we didn't expect the media onslaught. I call her Appley-Dappley."

On avoiding the media: "I love it here, I'm really happy... If you never walk down the street together it can stay private. We really value our family life. It [the media] feels very dark now, they want you to fall, throw up or do crack."

And Gwyneth talks about food: "I was seriously macrobiotic for four years. When I got pregnant, it changed. I couldn't go near anything healthy. I love anything fried – fish and chips – Branston pickle, red wine."

And she enjoys a pint of her favourite tipple, Guinness.

This week Jonathan also chats with Robert Downey Junior and Michael Aspel, and there's music from The Ting Tings.

A Hotsauce TV production for BBC One.
