    Brenda Song orders takeaway food "way too much"

    The 37-year-old actress - who has sons Dakota, three, and Carson, two, with Macaulay Culkin - has admitted that she struggles to balance her career with her responsibilities as a mother, and so she often has to rely on DoorDash, the fastfood delivery app


    Speaking to E! News, Brenda shared: "I lean on DoorDash way too much, especially in the day and age where I'm trying to juggle being a mom and also working and finding the time."

    Despite this, Brenda cherishes every moment she spends with her children.

    The Hollywood star said: "I'm enjoying every minute. No matter how much time you spend with your kids, it'll never be enough."

    Brenda loves celebrating milestones with her family, too.

    The actress explained: "I feel like every week it's a new milestone.

    "They're into something one week, the next, they're into something else. Seeing both my kids playing soccer, I'm just like, 'I remember when you were in my belly.'"

    Brenda previously revealed that her experience of motherhood has made her "question a lot".

    The 'Secret Obsession' star explained that motherhood has given her a new perspective on her life and her career.

    She told Bustle: "I had two pregnancies in the same calendar year. It was a lot.

    "Once I stepped into motherhood, it made me question a lot: my place in this industry, my place as a woman, ageism in this industry, society's pressures of what beauty is, what being young is. Things that I'd never questioned before. And also, my priority is my children, so I can't just uproot my life and go live in Bulgaria for nine months to shoot a movie. I was like, 'Does acting still fit in my life?'"

    Brenda considers her family to be her number one priority in life. But the actress recognises the need to find a healthy balance in her life, too.

    Brenda - who began her career at the age of six, working as a child model - shared: "Family life is the most important thing, but I've always said to be the best parent, the best partner, I have to be the best me. And a huge part of that is work. I have to be able to honour that."
