Becoming a Mom Later in Life<\/h2>\n
Swank has previously spoken openly about becoming a mother later in life. She was 48 when she welcomed her twins in 2023 and has said the timing ultimately worked out well for her.<\/p>\n
The actress told PEOPLE<\/em> that she always wanted children, but other parts of her life and career took priority when she was younger.<\/p>\n Swank said having children later has allowed her to be more present with them. With an established acting career, she now has more freedom to decide when she wants to work and when she wants to focus on her family.<\/p>\n She also believes age and life experience have given her more patience as a parent.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve done a lot of work on myself,\u201d she told PEOPLE, explaining that she believes working through personal issues can help parents avoid passing unhealthy patterns on to their children.<\/p>\n Swank has also said her twins have taught her an important lesson about slowing down and enjoying the present.<\/p>\n Hilary Swank was born on July 30, 1974, in Lincoln, Nebraska, and grew up in Washington state.
