Nicole Richie shares two kids — Harlow Winter Kate, 18, and Sparrow James Midnight, 17 — with Joel Madden.
Jennifer Lawrence is proving that motherhood always comes first.
The 35-year-old “Hunger Games” actress appeared on the Jan. 12 episode of the “SmartLess” podcast when host Jason Bateman admitted to being tempted to “not ever work again and just be home with kids.”
Lawrence, a mom of two, was quick to agree with his sentiment.
“That’s me,” she said. “I identify as a stay-at-home mom, but I am obviously working.”

Lawrence, who has been married to art gallery director Cooke Maroney since October 2019, shares two sons kids — Cy, born in February 2022, and a second boy, born in early 2025 — with her husband.
But even as a working mom, she does her best to stay grounded at home.
"I'm not used to being busy like this. I normally have a busy three months while I'm filming, but even in that sense, it's calm because there is nothing else to do," she said on the podcast.
"I just go to work, I do that, I come home, I sleep, and then I do it again. And then, like, two weeks while you promote. It is hectic,” she added.
Lawrence went on to praise her husband as the “anchor” that helps keep everything “organized” at home.
“I married somebody who is the opposite of me,” she said of Maroney. "Everything is ordered. I have to keep the closet doors closed, and I have my little jobs that I work really hard to do."

Lawrence also praised her husband for helping keep their children on a regular schedule.
"They’re on a very strict schedule. You know, it's like breakfast: 7:30," she continued. "He's good at keeping it. But we've learned [that] to keep our marriage alive, I have a 15-minute wiggle room."
Jennifer Lawrence shares her best advice to those without kids
Elsewhere on the podcast, host Sean Hayes opened up about why he hasn’t entered his father era yet.
The “Will & Grace” actor explained how he has a “fantasy” of being a dad someday, but hasn’t taken that step because he wants to be 100% sure that he and his husband are ready before they do.
“If he was 100%, then I’d be like ‘Great, let's do it.’ But we’re both like 85%, you know?” Hayes said. “It’s not fair to the kid.”
Lawrence was quick to agree, telling Hayes, “You made the right call.”
She then gave couples some of her best parenting advice when deciding whether to have kids or not.
“I don’t know. Whenever anybody tells me, ‘I’m not sure,’ I’m like, ‘Don’t do it,’” she said.
“It’s so weird that people are like, ‘Oh, you don’t have kids?! You don’t have kids?!’ And then when you have a kid, you’re like, ‘What the f**k?!’” she joked.
Lawrence argued that instead of asking people why they don’t have kids, people should be more inclined to ask people why they do want kids.

“It should’ve been one out of a thousand people that go ‘OK, I think I’m gonna do it,’ and then everyone’s like ‘Are you sure?!’” she explained. “That’s the way it should be.”
