Christina Hall’s Ex Ant Anstead Gives Girlfriend Renée Zellweger a ‘Bridget Jones’ Shoutout
Renée Zellweger just wanted a little time away from her own voice.
In 2010, the 55-year-old became noticeably absent from film after having one of the biggest runs in Hollywood. And now she’s sharing why.
“Because I needed to,” The Bridget Jones Diary actress told Hugh Grant in an interview with British Vogue published Jan. 15. “I was sick of the sound of my own voice. When I was working, I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, listen to you. Are you sad again, Renée? Oh, is this your mad voice?’ It was a regurgitation of the same emotional experiences.”
Renée quietly remained out of the spotlight from six years. And while she was away, she filled her time with things that mattered the most.
“I wrote music and studied international law,” she revealed. “I built a house, rescued a pair of older doggies, created a partnership that led to a production company, advocated for and fundraised with a sick friend, and spent a lot of time with family and godchildren and driving across the country with the dogs. I got healthy.”
