Thandie Newton is in constant contact with her personal assistant and thinks they speak more than she does with her husband.

Thandie Newton speaks to her assistant more than her husband.

The actress – who has two daughters, Ripley, eight, and Nico, four, with her producer spouse Ol Parker – admitted they both have such busy lives that they mainly communicate by text message.

The ‘Crash’ star said: “She’s my right hand woman. I hate to say it but we may actually text and speak more than my husband and I!”

Speaking of her husband, the 37-year-old actress added: “We are so busy, our relationship is largely lived on texts – from, ‘Remember to pack sandwiches for Nico’s school trips’, to figuring out when we can do stuff together.

“We text at least five times a day and probably talk the same amount. It’s a real lifeline for us.”

Thandie can call on her assistant for anything, but admits they are not always nice to one another.

She told Cosmopolitan magazine: “The most embarrassing thing I have asked her to do was to deliver some food for me last week on a shoot. I’m currently doing a detox and I feel like such a diva – not only having food delivered to the set, but also the fact that it was raw, vegan, had to be eaten within 24 hours… all this c**p!

“We are also very rude to each other on text – I called her a lying b***h the other day! If anybody read a transcript without knowing us, they’d think we were crazed!”

Hollywood star Thandie Newton and author Georgia Foster give their tips on how to socialise in style this Christmas…

Women these days are growing more aware of the amount of alcohol they drink with as many as 73% of women who drink, aged between 25-34, now drinking less than the recommended weekly allowance having realised the affect it can have both in terms of long term health and their looks.

The new study released as part of the Martini ‘The Beautiful Drink’ campaign suggests an emerging trend amongst women who enjoy a drink but want to be able to maintain their style & sophistication throughout the evening.

This noticeable shift in attitude to drinking has been linked to women’s desire to maintain their looks and their admittance that they’re ‘always conscious’ of their behaviour and appearance on a night out.

In this video, author of ‘The Drink Less Mind’ Georgia Foster and acclaimed actress Thandie Newton discuss this shift in attitude towards using alcohol as an expression of celebration not escapism and give advice on how to embrace the party season with confidence.

The Sūtra scarves are gorgeous, no matter what their woven message. Knowing their story, however, will make choosing your match just a little bit easier.

It would be easy to assume that words like Love, Peace or Trust would rank at the top of the list of lines that were provided for the scarves by superstars from David Bowie to Scarlett Johansson. So it’s a treat to get some unpredictable thought provocation in the form of Dust (yes, Dust) and Funk (yes, Funk). From a stable of artists known for their bold choices, their strong voices and their truly unique senses of style, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that they’re keeping us on our lingual toes.

Citta founder and spearhead of the Sūtra scarf project, Michael Daube talks about the stars he knows — and the words they chose.

He says, “To me, all of these artists are people who are very grounded, very successful and have a very powerful and passionate way of putting words into the world.”

Thandie Newton: Surrender

“When it went to be translated by the Sanskrit scholar, it meant, ‘when you take on a new understanding that absorbs your entire being.’”

Actress Thandie Newton has revealed that she shares strong bond with men because she does not flirt with them.

The 37-year-old ‘Crash’ star, married to writer Ol Parker, said she keeps her distance from manipulating her sexuality.

“I’ve never dated an actor, just had the odd fling. Isn’t that weird?” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

“I don’t flirt with people – a long time ago, I stopped using my sexuality to have a relationship with people.

“I don’t really think you get a sense of me, sexually, and that’s why I have really great relationships with straight men,” she added.
