Sienna Miller Finds True Calling In Motherhood & Disconnects Social Media

Sienna Miller has moved beyond her wild reputation from her 20s. The 32-year-old has taken on a new Twitter-free persona as a mother and serious actress.

“I was overwhelmed by how normal it felt,” she told the January issue of Vogue of raising two-year-old daughter Marlowe. “It was like, ‘There you are—that’s what I have been missing.’ Like we’re both in on something only we know. An amazing sense of being complicit with a little being.”

Sienna said sharing parenting responsibilities with actor Tom Sturridge, 28, is drama-free. The two became an item in 2011 and she described him as a “grounded, intelligent, kind, and intact person.”

Tom has even helped Sienna prepare for major auditions.

“As much as he helps my work, I help him,” she elaborated. “We’re both completely supportive of that need for creative output. At the moment, we’re just both trying to blast it; to get to a really great place.”

Sienna’s family life now is quite the stark contrast to her past relationship with Jude Law.

“I’d gone to the Tate with Jude and his son,” she recalled. “We’d started seeing each other, but it wasn’t known. I remember leaving his house the next day, getting into a cab, and this cabdriver saying, ‘I take it you haven’t seen News of the World today.’ I was like, ‘Sorry?’ And he said, ‘You’re all over it.’ He threw this newspaper with me on the front of the paper. Having a snog. Quite an overwhelming feeling.”

She’s left the tabloid fodder a thing of her past, but does acknowledge her much gossiped about history.

“It’s undeniable that I did have a reputation as someone who was a little bit wild, maybe,” she confessed. “Not with anyone I worked with. I was never late to work, and when I was on set, I was very professional. But . . . I think for a while, my public perception was a hard thing to overcome because people had such a strong preconceived idea of who I was.”

Taking her image into full consideration, Sienna has opted to avoid social media.

“It would be a minefield,” she predicted. “If someone attacked me, I definitely would retaliate.”

Sienna briefly opened an Instagram account for less than a week, but soon realized it wasn’t her cup of tea.

“[It] fueled the worst part of my soul,” she claimed. “It was the most addictive thing. Every morning I’d wake up and there would be a thousand more followers or whatever and there would be these amazing greetings like ‘Welcome! We love you!’ I’d be inflated by this nonexistent, intangible love. I was like, ‘I need to get off this.’… Ultimately it leaves you feeling incredibly lonely. I know friends who are prolific on social media, and it gives them a lot of anxiety. That level of exposure. . . .”

The beauty may not be an open book on Twitter, but she doesn’t hold back with her snarky sense of humor in a video posted on the Vogue website, which shows her meditating, ballet dancing, cuddling with her large Newfoundland dog, and sipping from a mug reading “Children Are Maggots.”

The January issue hits stands December 17th. Sienna can be seen in “Foxcatcher,” in theaters now, and “American Sniper,” which is due to be released in December.
