(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Rachel Weisz says being an actress has perks for working mothers.

The beautiful British actress has a four-year-old son called Henry Chance from her relationship with ex-partner Darren Aronofsky.

Rachel admits it can be tough raising a child and having a full-time career simultaneously, although she thinks if she were to work in a different profession it would be harder.

If I worked in an office or factory my son wouldnt be able to visit, but Henry comes to see me on set so its actually a very good place to be a working mum, she enthused.

The 40-year-old loves motherhood, although she admits for a long time she wasnt sure whether she wanted to be a parent or not. It was only when the beauty hit 30 her biological clock began to tick.

I didnt know if I wanted to be a mother and then in my thirties I began thinking, Oh actually I do! she added. (C) Cover Media
