Redheaded beauty Kate Walsh takes TV Guide’s “Best of 2007″ cover this week, giving the scoop on her marriage to movie exec Alex Young and her hit ABC show Private Practice.
“If this all happened to me when I was 25, I would have been shaving my head and driving over people’s feet!” joked Walsh, 40.
Here are some highlights from TVGuide’s cover story:
What’s the best thing about marriage so far? The more everything was happening, professionally, the more imperative it became to have someone to share it with. ‘Cause [this kind of success] is so rewarding, but it is extreme and exhausting. And you feel like, “If I don’t have anybody to share it with…” I can only call my mom and brother so many times. You need to support and love and balance–and, also, someone who cares and can call you on your s—, too!
Alex’s kisses are captured for the cameras, too. The tabloids recently ran photos of the two of you making out in the supermarket. How weird is that? The grocery store makeout, sure! Listen, as soon as we pull away from our house, usually on Saturdays, there’s a line of four cars following us. But what are ya gonna do? This is part of the job. To go to work and act is playing; the actual work is the paparazzi, the politics, everything else. But hey, I’m not gonna not go grocery store shopping–it’s literally become a novelty, like, “Hey, let’s go grocery shopping. Exciting!” All of your life changes with this success. But, come on, it’s glorious. Glorious! [Big laugh] I’m so happy, it’s morbid.
