The Academy Award nominee—who also shares daughter Georgia, 21, with Macy—also detailed the surreal evening she was arrested by the FBI in March 2019.
“They came into my home,” she remembered. “They woke my daughters up at gunpoint. Then they put my hands behind my back and handcuffed me and I asked if I could get dressed. I thought it was a hoax.
