Rachel Weisz: I keep my Oscar in the toilet

Actress says it's the best place to display award

Rachel Weisz's new film The Brothers Bloom is out on 27 October

Rachel Weisz has revealed that her Academy Award has pride of place in her house – in the loo!

She won Best Supporting Actress for her role in The Constant Gardener in 2006.

‘It’s in my bathroom,’ she says. 'It sounds strange but it’s one of the biggest rooms in my house and I like it very much.

'It’s also a room that no one goes to apart from my family, so it’s kind of private.’

Rachel, 38, says the Oscar means a lot to her because she was heavily pregnant with her son Henry, now 2, when she collected it.

‘Technically he won it with me,’ she tells OK! 'He was in utero! I was 7 months pregnant then.’

She is engaged to film-maker Darren Aronofsky, 39. They have been together for 6 years.
