Beverly D'Angelo: Motherhood Traded Career for Kids
1 Dec
Summary
- Beverly D'Angelo became a first-time mother at age 49 to twins.
- She believes prioritizing her children impacted her career's scope.
- D'Angelo and Al Pacino co-parent their twins conceived via IVF.
Actress Beverly D'Angelo, 73, recently shared insights into her life choices, revealing that she believes her career trajectory might have been different had she not prioritized motherhood. She welcomed twins Anton and Olivia, now 25, at age 49 through in vitro fertilization with her former partner Al Pacino. D'Angelo expressed that becoming a mother later in life led her to focus intensely on her children, potentially foregoing greater professional opportunities.
D'Angelo and Pacino, who were in a relationship from 1996 to 2003, conceived their children via IVF, a process they began in 1997. Despite the unconventional timing, D'Angelo emphasized the profound love and commitment she felt towards her children. She also touched upon the generational differences she experienced with other mothers and her efforts to provide a less Hollywood-centric upbringing for her twins, who eventually recognized "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" as a holiday classic.
