In a rather candid interview, Gwyneth Paltrow opened up about losing her third child, and how she "nearly died" herself.

The 40-year-old actress told the London Daily Mail's Sunday You that her kids Apple, 8, and Moses, 6, both want another sibling, but Paltrow confessed that she's "missing" her third.

"But I had a really bad experience when I was pregnant with my third," she confessed. "It didn't work out and I nearly died. So I am like, 'Are we good here or should we go back and try again?'"

Paltrow is, however, still considering more children. "And you never know, I could squeeze one more in. ...I'm thinking about it."

As for her parenting strategy with her two kids, Paltrow tells the British publication that she and husband Chris Martin are committed co-parents. "We make all the decisions together and lean on each other for support," she said. "[He] is so good to the children and to know that you had kids with such a good man is a real weight off you."

Paltrow is currently promoting her second cookbook titled It's All Good.
