Helena Bonham Carter: My son loves to wave wands and pretend
8th March 2010
Helena Bonham Carter has revealed that her son could be swapping any cashmere cardigans and playsuits for costumes, as he loves make-believe games.
Speaking to FearNet, the 43-year-old actress, who can currently be seen in her long-term partner Tim Burton's film Alice in Wonderland, said that her son Billy Ray likes to "wave wands and pretend".
She said that is "all he does" and as a result, she is "growing up with him again and we've got a lot to talk about".
With roles in Corpse Brides as the witch Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter under her belt, the actress is surely no stranger to dressing up and the is likely to have plenty of imaginative games to play with her son.
She and Burton are also parents to two-year-old Nell.
Bonham Carter plays the Red Queen in her partner's 3D spectacular Alice in Wonderland.
She stars alongside Mia Wasikowska, who plays Alice, and Johnny Depp who stars as the Mad Hatter.
