Gwyneth Paltrow: I had post-natal depression

Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed she suffered from post-partum depression after the birth of her son Moses in 2006.

“It was debilitating,” Paltrow said. “I just couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me and why I was so down and disconnected and sort of outside my body,” the Oscar-winning actress admitted in an interview with Extra.

It was Paltrow’s husband, Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin, who helped her acknowledge what she was going through.

“My husband actually was like, ‘You’re not OK. What’s going on?’ – and then it was like a burst of a bubble, and I realised there was something wrong. Then I started to deal with it.”

The couple have an older child, a daughter named Apple.
