    Jodie Turner-Smith is "over men"

    The 38-year-old actress split from Joshua Jackson - the father of her four-year-old daughter Juno - last year after four years of marriage but she's in no rush to go looking for love again


    Speaking to Glamour magazine's Women of the Year issue, for which she received the Screen Trailblazer award, she said: "I'm actually not dating, I'm over men."

    While Jodie is happily single, Joshua has been romantically linked with Lupita Nyong'o but the 'Queen and Slim' actress insisted she shouldn't have an opinion on what her ex-husband is doing now, so long as any partners are "good" to her and their daughter.

    She said: "He can do whatever he wants.

    "Just be good to Juno and be good to Juno's mum, because I'm going to be Juno's mum forever.

    "It's really not for me to have an opinion on his journey."

    A year after filing for divorce, the 'Acolyte' star admitted she and the 'Dawson's Creek' actor are still figuring out the right way to co-parent.

    She said: "It's an adjustment period for anyone when they split up with someone, because you're used to being with your child all the time.

    "But nobody hands you a manual. Everyone's trying to figure it out.

    "Each parent has a different life, and especially if the reason why you're splitting up is because you have different lives, it's only further complicated by how you're going to co-parent."

    And Jodie has found it very hard filming in England while her daughter has been at school in Los Angeles.

    She said: "This is going to be the thing I look back on and think, 'Wow, I survived that'. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do...

    "She's very strong, and she's so fiery. She comes from a long line of warrior women

    "Me, on the other hand? This is testing my warriorhood!"

    But the 'Bad Monkey' star has faith in herself.

    She said: "I got this. I got this because the only thing I know how to do is not break. I don't know what the path to success looks like, but I know that I will not, I shall not, I cannot break."
