Gwyneth Paltrow a control freak

Gwyneth Paltrow admits she is a control freak when it comes to organising her household.

Gwyneth Paltrow is a control freak at home.

The 'Iron Man' actress - who has two children, daughter Apple, three, and two-year-old son Moses with her Coldplay star husband Chris Martin - admits she takes charge of the family household.

She said: "I think all women are like that. We're very multi-tasking, head of the house. We have to be. Could you imagine what would happen if a man was in charge of all that stuff?"

Although she is super-organised, Gwyneth admits she does have a personal assistant to help her out when her hectic lifestyle gets too much for her.

She added to Britain's Heart FM radio station: "I definitely need help. I'm doing a lot of things at once, so I want someone who is smarter than me - which is easily done!"

Gwyneth - who has been turning heads on the red carpet in a series of stunning outfits in recent weeks - admits she likes to just slob out when she gets a day off.

The 35-year-old star said: "I'm into sweat pants and Uggs. I'm a bit frumpy at home, it's shocking!"
