The actress opens up about what she wants
Gillian Anderson has opened up about what she wants in a partner and how she views his desires as.
The actress, famously known for her roles in The Crown, The X Files and Sex Education, has said that she wants her partner to desire the “real” instead of the “perfect version” of her.
In an interview on Davina McCall's Begin Again podcast, Gillian praised women for opening up about their personal stories for her book Want.
“I think what was remarkable about the book and the conversation that it's started, was because of the courage of the women who submitted the letters.”, she thanked the women.
The actress is currently in a relationship with screenwriter Peter Morgan.
“Yes there's a version of a fantasy where even in my mind I look a certain way and I'm imagining that they are desiring me as that way,” she said.
She added “but actually the thing that I really want is to be looked at adoringly for who I am”.
