Actress Elizabeth Banks says surrogacy was a “very easy” decision, once she had got over the initial realisation that she wasn’t going to be pregnant.

The Hunger Games actress and her sports writer and producer husband Max Handelman became parents to baby Felix via a gestational surrogate last year, and she admits it was a simple choice to make, once she had got over the initial phase when she realised she wasn’t going to be pregnant.

“It helps that other moms had said that once they had their babies, they forgot they were ever pregnant. So, once my focus became the baby and not the pregnancy, it was a very easy decision,” she told a magazine.

The 37-year-old star believes her “amazing” marriage will be “long-lasting” partly because the couple are able to spend time with each other at work.

She added, “Working together provides a lot of balance in our life and it’s a way for us to (see each other), because I travel so much for work. I have an amazing marriage and it will be long-lasting. I think I’m a good mom. I could run for office without any problem because there are no skeletons in my closet.”
