Anna Adrianou gave an interview to "I" magazine and talked about her love for stray animals and her decision not to have a child of her own.
Talking about her love for stray animals she says: "This has been going on since I was a child as my parents also protected animals and loved them very much. I grew up with animals. As I grew up and saw the abuse of animals, I became very interested. I took care of them, and I always had my own. For 25 years now, there have thankfully been volunteer animal lovers and philanthropists. I am now a member of the Panhellenic Animal Welfare Federation (P.F.P.O.) with which I have worked and continue to work. People send me ads and I send them to animal welfare groups. And personally, I go to shelters, I walk animals. I like all that, because life is monotonous if it's only focused around yourself. If you don't give love, you won't get joy."
On why she didn't have a child of her own, Anna Adrianou says: "It was something that almost didn't concern me. Because if it did bother me, badly, I would have a child. I always had the desire to give, to more people. A child didn't come up, and if it did, I had a fear that I wouldn't be able to have the energy that a child needs. As a nature I love very much, but I also want to have the illusion of a freedom."
About the possibility of adoption the actress said: "In general, it was not in my plans to have a child of my own in my home. If a child came my way or a big person who needed help, I would adopt them. We are all one big family. A concept I inevitably got from my parents. At one point I was touched by a little kid who was looking for a family and going blind. I just wasn't married then, I didn't have a steady income and it didn't work out."
