Knightley is best known for her role as Elizabeth Swann in Pirates of the Caribbean. At the time of filming, the actress was only 18 years old. Knightley admitted that she did not feel feminine at this age, but after the release of “Pirates of the Caribbean” on the screens, she instantly became considered one of the sexiest actresses. The imposed image was very embarrassing for Kira.

“She was the object of everyone’s lust. It’s not that she didn’t have a lot of struggle. It was interesting to go from being a real tomboy to becoming the complete opposite. I felt squeezed. I felt like I was in a rut. Subsequent roles were an attempt to get out of this, ”Kira opened up.
It took the actress five years to deal with her emotions. Knightley felt “completely exhausted”. The star continued to shoot a lot. The 37-year-old wife of musician James Righton admitted that at some point she brought herself to post-traumatic stress disorder.
“I felt trapped in things I didn’t understand. I was incredibly strict with myself. I’ve never been good enough. I was totally driven, very ambitious and passionate – trying to get better and better and work on myself. It’s a very exhausting way of life. Exhausting. I admire myself as a 22-year-old, and I would like to return it. And now, not being like that, I realize how extraordinary it was. But you have to pay. What’s the price? Burnout, ”explained partner Orlando Bloom.

The actress has two daughters – 7-year-old Edie and 3-year-old Delilah. Attempts to combine filming and family Kira calls “unpredictable and extreme.” The star noted that many underestimate the work of young mothers.
