Kill Bill star had a hard time

Kill Bill star Uma Thurman says she almost lost it on the set of the mega-hit by having to juggle a lead role with a new-born baby.

The gorgeous actress couldn’t say no to the role in Quentin Tarantino’s latest film but now admits that filming so soon after giving birth to her second child Roan by estranged husband Ethan Hawke was a nightmare.

She says, "In the first week, I ended up in the bathroom crying. There were a couple of moments when I was on my knees. I was breast-feeding and sleep deprived because I'd been up all night with the baby.

"I was exhausted. I'd never realized how hard it would be. It was unlike anything I'd ever done before. But I had the will to do it - it was empowering to make it out alive with my joints semi-intact."
