Charlize poses for the July issue of Esquire
Thirty eight-year-old Charlize has a two-year-old son Jackson and said she always knew that she would adopt.
The actress will hit the big screen later this year in Dark Places, a film adaptation of the Gillian Flynn book.
When Charlize was 15, her mother was forced to shoot her alcoholic father after he threatened them both. He died but it was ruled as self-defence and her mother didn't face any charges.
"It's titillating. It sells magazines, at the expense of me and other people who were involved," she told Esquire of the experience.
"I'm asking for it a little bit with Dark Places. I'll 'fess up to that. This is why it's so hard: I get it. I get that people, if they know the (Gillian Flynn) book, would be like, "Oh, of course Charlize is doing this."
The actress continued: "I’m not denying that my father's death is a part of me. I just don't think it's the only part of me, and I think sometimes people like to blow it out of proportion".Explore more on these topics:
