“She’s tougher, she’s stronger,” Berry said. “Last year was a self-contained thing… we didn’t know if we’d be coming back.”

“Having children, I do think there’s just something subconscious that’s probably in my work that comes from being a real mother,” Berry revealed. “There’s things I say and things I do, I sometimes catch myself touching Pierce in a way I recognize touching my very own daughter. It’s almost a deja vu moment.”
