Sandra also gave an insight into how parenting throughout pandemic has been for her, claiming she has built up quite a reputation amongst other parents. "All the parents know me as the crazy lady with the pandemic," she shared. "They know their children will return without Covid when they’ve come to our house." The Miss Congeniality star previously spoke about just how highly she prioritises her kids while promoting Bird Box in 2018. In an interview with Today, she shared: "Everything is about them being ok, being in school, having what they need, their moments. I need to be there for every single moment that they have. "It's harder for me to leave them than I think it is for them when I leave. I don't leave that much, and I don't work that much anymore either... So my priorities are my kids, my kids, my kids. My family."
