Every human on Earth is the result of a pregnancy so why is this person so different? Why do you fill a quality newspaper with such drivel about a woman who is adding to the population explosion by reproducing more than two children and who gets paid a lot of money for play acting various characters- and not very well at that. Can't you fill the space with chit chat about someone who has contributed something important oe useful to society. Soon it will be difficult to distinguish The Times from Hello! Magazine.

I agree - Kate Blanchett made very little impression on me in 'The Queen'. But in fairness that's probably because she wasn't in it - you're thinking of Helen Mirren.
Oh, and she wasn't in 'Elisabeth' either (that's a 2005 Austrian movie). You should try watching 'Elizabeth' - she was cracking in that, and it's in English.

kate who !!! lucky for her she can go back to work , Its not like she will be doing much, do i care NO , she doesn't live in the real world Just like the other superstars ! would not pay to go and see her, I have three children and i work non stop want to give me a pat on the back Kate ( i don't have a nanny).

This is not newsworthy. However, commiserations to Cate Blanchett for missing time with her baby. So glad I am not her.

It seems strange to talk about wanting more children and then running back to work 6 days after giving birth. Does she want more kids, or does the nanny?

Kaz, I really think it's nobody's business what way Kate Blanchett chooses to rear her children. She never tried to show us mere mortals how to bring up kids, did she?
Amita, roles like hers may be boring for you, but they bring joy for millions, including me. Coronation Street or Spiderman are much better productions of course, but will you please let her live :)

What is this obsession people have with no sooner pushing out a baby before planning the next one. You have 3 children already, enough is enough. The world is groaning under the crush of people now. Even better, adopt a child if you want to but for God's sake give the earth a break.
Karen, London, UK
Cate Blanchett is an overrated actress suitable for boring roles like the ones she is used to play in the Queen, Elisabeth and so on, in Babel she was overacted and really and truly don't see the fascination with her. She looks boring too.

yawn - yet another super "mum" showing us mere mortals how mothering should be done - NOT!!!!
