However, speaking with India Today recently, Ileana, for the first time, addressed her marriage and heaped praises on her husband, for having her back always. She expressed:
“Married life is going beautifully. It’s really hard to say what I love about him the most. I'll have to really think, because I feel like every time I come up with an answer, there's something else that you know trumps that the next day. He's seen me through my worst times, my absolute worst times. He has seen me through some of my best times as well. He's just been constant from day one. He's just this consistent support, and he knows me inside out. I don’t know of anyone else who has understood me the way he does.”
In the same interview, Ileana also spoke about the idea of balancing her work as well as fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother. The actress remarked how she feels mother’s guilt in the slightest of her actions that trigger such emotions. She narrated how it feels unbearable for her to stay a minute away from her child. Moreover, she added how her husband, Michael Dolan supports her in these weak moments, when she entertains self-doubt and assures her that everything is fine.
