Ana said the attention her romance with Ben Affleck drew was too much 

Ana left Los Angeles and said she's much happier with a life further away from the spotlight, outside of work.

"It became a little bit too much," she told Elle. "There’s no escape. There’s no way out. That’s one of the reasons why I left L.A. It’s always the feeling of something that you don’t have, something missing. It’s a city that keeps you anxious."

Ana is receiving rave reviews for Blonde and recently opened up with Today Show's Willie Geist, and looked back on the first time that she transformed herself into Marilyn, and how emotional it made her.

"I don't even know how to describe it," she said. "It was like… everyone in the room started crying, I can tell you that."

Speaking of how draining the filming process often was, she said: "I was her for nine weeks. And I can tell you, it was exhausting. I just cannot imagine what it was like to be her for 36 years."
