"Between my sister and I, we have so many children and our careers and our work, and wanting to take care of her because my father wasn't in the world anymore, and that's when I went, ‘I wish there was these people in the world that were there to sit impartially and just provide solace and care,'" she added.
The actress further stated, "So that's part of my expansion and one of the things I will be learning."
