Jodie Turner-Smith, the talented 39-year-old actress, has expressed her desire to expand her family. The star, who shares a five-year-old daughter named Juno with her ex-husband, actor Joshua Jackson, is keen on having another baby. The couple, who married in 2019, officially divorced in May 2023, but Turner-Smith’s enthusiasm for motherhood remains undeterred.
In a candid interview with People magazine, she shared, “My heart is open because I definitely need to have another baby. I want another baby – but I don’t necessarily need the man to go along with it!” This statement emphasizes her independence and willingness to pursue motherhood on her own terms.
Currently balancing her time between London, where she is filming the second season of the Paramount+ spy thriller series “The Agency,” and her home in Los Angeles, Turner-Smith is also setting high standards for future relationships. She candidly stated that any potential partner must understand that her daughter Juno is her top priority. “If I’ve made time to go out on a date with you, you need to figure it out. Send a car. Where are you taking me? A real date! Not a meetup,” she explained, highlighting her desire for a meaningful connection.
Despite being single, Turner-Smith remains hopeful about love, saying, “I love love. So let’s see what happens!” This optimism is reflected in her approach to dating, as she half-jokingly compared her ideal partner to a character from “The Agency,” who goes to great lengths for love. “Are you going to commit treason for me or not?” she quipped, showcasing her playful yet serious view on commitment.
Turner-Smith is also passionate about her dual role as a mother and a working actress. She firmly believes in the importance of showing her daughter that it is possible to lead a fulfilling life both as a parent and a professional. “I don’t feel I should have to choose between them. I want to teach my daughter that she shouldn’t have to either,” she said, advocating for a societal change that supports women in balancing their personal and professional lives.
Through her words and actions, Jodie Turner-Smith exemplifies the strength of modern motherhood. Her hope for another child and commitment to her existing family demonstrate a powerful message of empowerment and resilience.
