Danielle Cormack’s surprise baby blessing
30 May
Few mothers could manage to look as beautiful, stress-free and totally in love as Danielle Cormack does when she cradles her new baby son Te Ahi Ka Cormack Hema-Taylor. But then the well-known actress admits she’s never been this happy. She has a devoted and loving partner, two happy healthy sons and is about to start work on a top Australian television drama in a lead role.
“Things are looking pretty good,” she says. “It has all happened organically for me and so my life at the moment is not so much a surprise, it just all feels right.” When Danielle found out she was pregnant with Ahi – as she calls him – she says she was in shock for a few days. Her 40th birthday will be in December this year, her partner, handsome Boy actor Pana Hema-Taylor, is just 20 and with her first son Ethan nearly aged 14, she had decided that she wouldn’t have any more children.
“About three years ago, I adamantly made up my mind that I didn’t want any more. But then I found myself in a relationship, I was in love, and that helps you readdress certain choices,” she says. “I was very contemplative for about two weeks. I tried hard not to analyse it too much because I just needed to sit with it for a while, to process it and think about everything – like my age and the age gap between myself and Pana.”
