Charlize Theron has revealed she is keen to be a mother one day, but insists she's not a slave to her biological clock.
The actress this week said she had no plans to marry longterm boyfriend Stuart Townsend.
She claims the pair will have children one day - but only when she is ready to settle down and put her career on hold.
Theron tells U.S. magazine Glamour, "I've always known I'd like to be a mum, but I don't want to live by a schedule. If I did, I wouldn't be living in the moment. I try as much as I can to live the life I want right now."
