Angela Bassett didn’t shed tears when her children left home
The 66-year-old actress has revealed that she felt “lots of joy” when she dropped her 19-year-old twins, Bronwyn and Slater, off at their new school.
The award-winning star – who has been married to actor Courtney B. Vance since 1997 – told the ‘Today’ show: “You know what, no tears. Just lots of joy.
“You think you’re going to cry, and because you think you are going to do that, it doesn’t happen. I remember when I went to college and how wonderful it was, so, of course, I wanted that for them too, so no cries, no guilt.”
Angela previously insisted that she will support her kids if they follow her into the movie business.
The Hollywood star revealed that she will always support her children – irrespective of what they do in their careers.
Speaking about her kids’ interests, Angela explained to PEOPLE: “They want to follow the success, but whether it be acting, I don’t get any clues to that right now. It’s a little music, a little sports. But whatever they want to do, I support them.”
Angela previously won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, and the movie star revealed that she celebrated her success with her kids.
The acclaimed actress – who has won a host of awards during her career, including a Primetime Emmy Award and two Golden Globe Awards – said: “I went home and hugged my kids. They were really excited for mom to bring home a statue.”
