Billie Piper<\/a> has admitted there is “absolutely no way” she has a work-life balance.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Billie Piper struggles to find balance<\/p>\n

The ‘Scoop’ actress – who has sons Winston, 15, and 11-year-old Eugene with ex-husband Laurence Fox<\/a> and five-year-old daughter Tallullah with former partner Johnny Lloyd – finds her job can be quite “tiring” because she has to spend so long out of the home when she has a major role in a project, and it has become an increasing “struggle” with juggling her work and the needs of her kids.<\/p>\n

She told independent.co.uk: “Working mothers\u2019 stuff is really complex.”<\/p>\n

Asked if she has a work-life balance, she added: \u201cNo. I don\u2019t. I feel like we\u2019ve been told we should have that. But there\u2019s absolutely no way I have that? <\/p>\n

“And that\u2019s one of the tiring things about being an actor for hire \u2013 if you\u2019re working in a lead role, you\u2019re out of the house sometimes 15 hours a day.<\/p>\n

\n“I really struggle with that now I\u2019ve got three kids.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nBillie explained it can be particularly difficult as she may have an intense three-month period of filming and then no work for the rest of the year.<\/p>\n

\nShe noted: “But when you\u2019re gone, you\u2019re gone. Those extremes make for something quite rocky.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe 41-year-old star finds she experiences more “primal” feelings now she is a mother and certain news stories leave her feeling “sick and furious”.<\/p>\n

\nDiscussing her latest project ‘Scoop’ – which follows the securing of ‘Newsnight’s infamous interview with Prince Andrew about his friendship with billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein – she said: \u201cSince I\u2019ve had children, anything like this, any abuse of power and abuse of innocence, just makes me feel sick and furious. I don\u2019t know that I had access to that type of emotion before children.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThings like that would really upset me, or scare me even. But when you have kids, it becomes something totally almost primal. The feelings you get. <\/p>\n

\n“And there\u2019s loads of stuff you can\u2019t even watch or read any more.<\/p>\n

\n“And now that I\u2019ve had a girl, I feel alarmingly protective of her!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
