Drew Barrymore has denied she is getting married and starting a family - claiming she isn't ready to sacrifice her acting career.

The beautiful star, who is dating The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti, says she is enjoying working and her social life too much to settle down.

The actress, who recently turned 30, said: "I'm not ready to have a family and I'm not ready to get married. My head is so not in that space.

"It's more about enjoying life and having fun and working, spending time with my love and family and friends. Those are my priorities."

Drew also claims she is unsure whether she will ever be ready to be a mother.

The screen beauty, who starred in her first Hollywood movie aged just six-months, says she is not sure if she will ever be ready to have kids.

She added: "You'll never really be ready for having a kid - well that's what all my friends who are mothers tell me - but I still think that if I wait for a bit longer, I'll be better suited to the job."
