Keira Knightley's husband has put his "life on hold" to care for their daughter so she can go to work.

The 33-year-old actress has praised her "amazing" spouse James Righton for taking time out from his music career with his band Klaxons to take on as many parenting duties as he can when it comes to looking after their three-year-old girl Edie, and when he's not there, Keira feels "super lucky" to know there are others she can rely on.
Speaking to OK! magazine, she said: "He has been amazing. He's been travelling with me since we had her.
"He's largely put his life on hold to make sure that I'm still at work and that we're keeping together as a family unit.
"I'm super lucky, I can afford child care. I have a wonderful nanny that has travelled with us as well. When she's there, I feel completely safe that Edie is good. And my mum, whenever my husband can't be there, has flown to wherever we are. They say it takes a village to raise a child - it takes a village to keep a woman at work as well. But if that's where she should be then everybody is very supportive and it's possible."
Despite having a supportive family around her, Keira admitted it is "hard" juggling her career with motherhood and her latest movie, 'Colette', was even delayed because she was struggling to get enough rest.
She said: "It's hard! She's magnificent and she's a lot of work.
"We actually delayed shooting ['Colette'] by a year. Originally we were going to do it when she was one but sleeping has never been a thing she's been that fond of. So we waited until she was two. And she still didn't sleep but I was a bit more used to it by then."
But the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star always wants there to be a "safe space" on set so she can find time to be with her daughter even on a hectic day's filming.
She said: "I've tried to make sure when she's very small that there's been a safe place on set that she can come to for just half an hour, so that we touch base and we're connected."
