Why Olivia hides her Oscar away

ACADEMY Award-winner Olivia Colman, 45, reveals she has had to hide her Oscar from her inquisitive kids.

The Favourite star, who is married to fellow actor Ed Sinclair with whom she has three children aged three to 14, says: ‘I keep my Oscar in what we call the posh room because it’s a sitting room which we don’t allow the kids in unless we’re in there. I know it’s safe and sound in there.’

Speaking at The Eve Appeal charity art auction at Bonhams in Knightsbridge, she adds: ‘I used to want to be an artist but I don’t think my drawings were ever that great.’ Oh well, the day job’s not going so badly though, is it?
