Although Cate Blanchett’s latest film, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” focuses on how her character falls for a man who ages in reverse, the 39-year-old actress would never turn to surgery in order to look younger.

 

She told Vanity Fair in the magazine’s cover story that she had not tried to use injectables, in spite of the fact that she did not disapprove of them. Cate Blanchett said she had been brought up in an environment that had nothing to do with such procedures and that she felt one could not run away from the passing of time, which leaves its mark inevitably, even if on one’s skin or on one’s mind.

 

She added that her husband of 11 years, playwright and screenwriter Andrew Upton, said he would divorce her if she did anything related to cosmetic surgery. The actress, who has three boys with her spouse, Dashiell, 7, Roman, 4, and Ignatius, who turns 1 in April, explained that she loved the changes her body had suffered after she gave birth, as every transformation was of sign of history and progress.

 

In the interview included in the February issue of Vanity Fair, which is scheduled to hit newsstands in New York and Los Angeles on December 31 and nationally on January 6, Cate Blanchett said she did not exclude the possibility of having more babies.

 

She even talked about how she and her husband had met and how he had proposed to her very soon. She said she knew that saying ‘yes’ was the right decision and that it felt “extraordinary.”
