Rosario Dawson, 35, is now a mother. The actress has adopted a 12-year-old daughter, Us Weekly confirms. "She's always been family oriented and knew that she wanted to raise a child," a source says. "She wants to have a relationship with her daughter like she has with her mother."
Dawson has, for a long time, expressed her desire to adopt. "I always wanted to adopt kids cause my dad adopted me," she told Latina magazine back in 2008. "That idea has stayed in the back of my head, but lately, I've been thinking about it more."
"My [adopted] dad started dating my mom when she was eight months pregnant with me," the movie beauty revealed. "He was beautiful. I wanted to be him. I love my father, he is amazing to me. I was daddy's little girl growing up."
"My mother and grandmother are extraordinary women, and they're getting older," she said. "It struck me recently that one day I might be sitting around with my children, going ‘Your grandma was an amazing woman; I really wish you could've known her.' That makes me sad cause it would be a waste to not have these people know each other. Whatever time I have, I want it."
