Courteney Cox - Harper's Bazaar April 2011

Courteney Cox takes the cover of the April issue of Harper's Bazaar, and in the interview, she opens up about her separation from husband David Arquette, her family, career, and marriage.

Check out some highlights from the 46-year-old's interview:

On her estranged husband, David Arquette's shocking confessions on Howard Stern's show about their sex life: "You can't really get mad at David because he's not a malicious person. He was dealing with things the best way he could. And don't get me wrong, he was on a show for entertainment. David is smart, and David is also a showman. He knew what he was doing. I don't know what's going to happen, but I don't think he'll be doing more Howard Stern any time soon. He's not out to harm. But I'm his biggest protector. I can't help it."

On her marital struggles: "The thing is, when you get older, it's more about compatibility than it is about love. I think it's more about needing just a kind of peace and stillness. I'm kind of all over the place, and I need grounding. I want to be calm. I want to change a lot. I want to live not outside but inside. It's nothing with David; it's just what I'm searching for."

On their seven-year age gap: "Most guys aren't that mature, are they? They just don't think the way we think. I thought I had always been a little bit of a cougar with David..I don't find the whole cougar word that offensive. And also, a cougar is someone who takes care of herself and goes out with younger guys. She doesn't need a man to take care of her."

On Arquette's dalliance with a cocktail waitress during their separation: "He absolutely did nothing that wasn't in the boundaries of what we set for our separation, so there's nothing to judge. I may not have known about it, but that's the only difference."
