Lucy Liu Dishes on Being a Mom: ‘Everything Becomes Really Magical’

Lucy Liu welcomed son Rockwell Lloyd via gestational surrogacy in 2015 and now reveals how motherhood has changed her life for the better.

“The priorities shift,” the 47-year-old actress told The Insider With Yahoo as she celebrated 100 episodes of her CBS show Elementary. “Everything becomes really magical and fresh and quite funny. Like, I don’t think I’ve ever laughed as much as I have in this year in my life. Because everything is just ridiculously hilarious. It’s great.”

And the proud mama couldn’t help but gush over her baby boy. “He’s incredibly curious and he’s also very smart,” she said.

On Saturday, Lucy celebrated her little one’s first birthday with a sweet photo on Instagram. “Happy 1st birthday to my little love Rockwell,” she captioned the black-and-white pic of her son at the Bronx Zoo. “This has been the most incredible year of new adventures and endless fun.” Lucy also dished on the possibility of rebooting Ally McBeal and Charlie’s Angels.
