Hard work: Actress Amanda Seyfried

Actress Amanda Seyfried has revealed she has struggled to enjoy travelling for work since starting her family.

Seyfried, 33, had a daughter, whose name is not public knowledge, with husband Thomas Sadoski in March 2017. She recently shot The Art of Racing In The Rain in Vancouver and You Should Have in Britain, months after shooting the Mamma Mia sequel in Croatia.

“I hate being on the road,” she told A List. “How many times can you go to a Target in the town that you’re in and get another goddam duvet? It’s really stressful getting more stuff and packing it and taking it home.

“I did a movie in London last year and a movie in Vancouver, and trying to make everything feel like home is exhausting and always having my daughter and my dog with me… I’d much rather be home.”

Seyfried was recently in Geneva, Switzerland, for the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie after teaming up with watch brand Jaeger-LeCoultre, alongside fellow actor Nicholas Hoult.

The Mean Girls actress, who makes her own jewellery, added: “Several of the men in my life are obsessed with watches. I love a good men’s watch — it’s sexy. And I think we should see more women wearing watches on the red carpet — it feels forbidden.”

Seyfried makes her own jewellery for friends, but said she has no plans to bring out her own line. “That’s too much work because you have to publicise it and other people would be doing it so it’s not yours anymore,” she said. “I’m terrified of that type of thing. But, ask me in 10 years and maybe I’ll have changed my mind.”

Mamma mia!
