Jude Law’s Ex Releases Memoir About the Couple’s Marriage
Jude Law’s ex-wife has just released a memoir detailing her depression during the couple’s marriage.
Sadie Frost, the ex-wife of actor Jude Law, has recently released a memoir that highlights the difficulty of her marriage as well as her struggles with depression. Frost and Law split in 2003, but apparently the damage that was done during the marriage was so intense that Frost felt it worthy of a book. The two met 20 years ago when Frost was a married mother and Law was not yet a big star. Said Frost, who is now 45, "I knew that by even entertaining thoughts of Jude, I was jeopardizing an idyllic home life the most secure relationship I’d ever had. I crushed my unwelcome ideas about Jude, but it wasn’t easy."
Ultimately, of course, Frost did leave her husband and married Law. Said Frost, "The force of love I felt for Jude and his intense ambition made me feel out of control. I felt it was my fate to spend the rest of my life with Jude." During her pregnancy with their first child, however, she said she slipped into a terrible depression, and things got worse after she actually gave birth. Said Frost, "Unease was pulling me down, making me feel low and lost. Eventually I wanted to press the self-destruct button."
Frost even opens up in the memoir about her desire to hurt herself. "I was sitting at my dressing table, not feeling anything, just numb. I watched my hand slowly pick up a pair of scissors. It was as if I was being sucked down lower into the chair and the scissors seemed to be drawn to my arm. I appeared to have cut myself. Blood dripped down my arm. There was no sense of panic within me. I just felt empty." Frost is apparently feeling better now, but spent time in a psychiatric ward in order to achieve some sense of peace."
