Gal Gadot Shares How Her Kids, Motherhood Helped Her as an Actress

Gal Gadot is still marveling at the wonders of parenthood. 

The Wonder Woman star explained how becoming a mom to her and husband Jaron Varsano’s kids Alma, 14, Maya, 9, Daniella, 5, and Ori, 2, even helped her unlock a new side of herself as an actress. 

“Anything that I go through emotionally in my life just feeds into my acting as well,” Gadot shared in an exclusive interview with E! News’ Will Marfuggi, “because it gives me more to work with.”

And much of those emotions come from being a mom of four.

“I feel from my experience that my life before becoming a mom was just the preview to what life is when I’m gonna be a mother,” she explained. “Everything changes. The priority, the depth of the emotions that I felt.”

Plus, having kids helped the 41-year-old understand that “it’s not about you—it’s always about them,” which in turn helped her unlock “more and more tools” throughout her acting career.
