She strikes me, with her not being very physically affectionate, that motherhood was something she didn't really want to sign up for. I don't recall the particulars of her marriage to Lestat's father, but if it wasn't a love match, she needed to be in a family with more wealth or influence to live the life she really wanted to live.
But that Lestat was her favourite because he was the most like her, she understood his moods because she could relate. Although, he got to have freedoms as a man she never had, so she used what influence she had to encourage it and live vicariously by his wild streak.
