What was said
"I kept waiting for my life to slow down. It never slowed down. And when I thought I wanted it, then I really started sitting down to scheduling and I thought I'm not mother material. My husband certainly isn't father material. He was the most judgmental oddball."
Bo Derek reveals that despite societal expectations, she realized in her 30s that she was not suited for motherhood. She waited for her career to slow down so she could have children with John Derek, but upon reflection concluded neither she nor her much-older husband were parent material, calling him a judgmental oddball who had been tough on his children from previous marriages.
