On their home life, Dakota detailed: ‘We’ve been together for quite a while and we go out sometimes, but we both work so much that it’s nice to be at home and be cosy and private. Most of the partying takes place inside of my house’.
Elsewhere during the interview, the Texan born, who snatched her first film role alongside her film sensation mother Melanie Griffith 22 years ago, also expanded on why she feels older and younger at the same time.
Despite being in her early 30s, she explained: ‘I feel both 48 and 26. I’ve had a lot of “life” in my life. I had a lot of life really young, so I think I feel older’.
Dakota described her mother Melanie as ‘nurturing, generous and loving’ and someone who was an ‘amazing partner to her husbands’ – Dakota’s father Don, actor Steven Bauer and Spanish star Antonio Banderas.

Elsewhere, The BAFTA winner was highly complimentary of fellow actress Maggie Gyllenhaal and her Lost Daughter co-star Olivia Colman.
She explained how Maggie – who she dubbed a ‘truth seeker’ – ignited her to see parts of herself she didn’t know were there after they delved ‘deep into the experience of being a woman, both in film and in this world.’
Meanwhile Dakota hailed Olivia as a ‘wild time’, regaling how she ‘always wants to meet up, drink wine and talk.’
Not only is Dakota’s forte acting, she is also investor and Co-Creative Director of sexual wellness brand Maude.
She believes that it’s ‘healthy’ and a ‘basic human need’ to have access to quality sexual wellness products.
‘I’m just remembering I had a dream about our butt plug last night… [I want to explore] what the most pleasurable and seamless and chic and quality experience can be,’ she concluded.
