 Katherine Heigl and Naleigh: W Cover Girls

She’s settled into her role as mother to her adorable adopted daughter Naleigh, and Katherine Heigl couldn’t be happier.

The “Grey’s Anatomy” babe appears on the cover of the December issue of W magazine along with her 22-month old girl, and in the accompanying interview, she explains how well everything has worked out.



Katherine shared that her role in “Life as We Know It” was well-timed with her adoption. "I was about to play a woman who inherits a baby, and I was experiencing the exact same thing.”

And so far motherhood has changed Ms. Heigl for the better. "You have this empathy suddenly – this compassion for a mother going through anything complicated or difficult with a child. It's something that I understand now – that unbelievable drive and instinct to protect."
