Motherhood is most important for Monica

Monica is enjoying her motherhood to the hilt.

London: `Matrix Revolutions` star Monica Bellucci is enjoying her motherhood to the hilt and gives it prime importance in her life. Bellucci is relieved that she is no longer in her twenties and has grown old enough to embrace motherhood, reported Contactmusic.

"I wouldn`t want to be 20 again for anything. I am much happier now than when I was younger. You have to discover who you are, who you are going to be, there are so many insecurities. Today, I know the things that I need, the things that I can live without," said Bellucci. The 44-year-old actress, who has a four-year-old daughter Deva with her husband Vincent Cassel, is satisfied with her life as a mother. "Deva arrived at a perfect moment for me. I have done so many things in my life, been to so many places, had some great times - but when she came I was ready to give her everything she needed. The most important thing with children is to give them time," the website quoted Bellucci telling to You magazine. The Italian beauty adores being a mother and happily shuns glamorous Hollywood parties to spend time with her daughter. "I am at a stage in my life where I if I don`t go out, I don`t feel I`m missing something. I get bored surrounded by people smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol. And I`m not so interested now in going to premieres or being photographed on the red carpet. I want to be with her," Bellucci said. Bureau Report
