Earlier this month, she said on E!’s Daily Pop that she isn’t trying to date right now.
“I don't feel like I'm missing out on something in my life, it's just not something that I'm looking out for right now,” the “Atomic Blonde” actress declared.
She also previously said in an interview on “The Howard Stern Show” that her two daughters are the “great loves of [her] life” and she therefore has “never been lonely.”

“The thing that was really eye-opening to me was, my children kind of came to me in this unexpected way, where you know — I didn’t know I was going to be the mom to two African-American girls,” she said.

“I didn’t know I was going to be the mom to an African-American trans girl. All of these things have kind of made me more aware of how little I know,” the Academy Award winner admitted.
