Cate Blanchett, a two-time Oscar winner (Where’d You Go Bernadette, Carol), has been married to playwright-writer-producer Andrew Upton for 23 years.
Blanchett is now making headlines for her leading role in the new Mrs. America mini-series on FX on Hulu, which follows second-wave feminists including Shirley Chisholm (played by Margo Martindale), Gloria Steinem (played by Rose Byrne), and Bella Abzug (played by Margo Martindale) (Uzo Aduba).
Phyllis Schlafly, a formidable anti-feminist conservative who contributed to the failure of the Equal Rights Amendment and illuminated the political debate over a “woman’s place,” an ideology that still looms today, is portrayed in the nine-part series by Blanchett, who also serves as an executive producer.
Are Cate Blanchett’s children adopted?
No, only one of her kids was adopted. The Cinderella actress and her husband Andrew Upton, who already have three children, son Ignatius Martin, Roman Robert, and Dashiell John, were delighted to recently adopt their daughter Edith Vivian Patricia.
