Michelle is constantly asked why she and Mark don’t have children. In January, she spoke candidly about the consequences of this for her.

She told The Mirror: ‘It’s horrible. People don’t know if we’re trying. They don’t know the background of what’s happening.

‘In this day and age you shouldn’t be asking questions like that. I’m only asked because I’m a woman.

“But I’m immune to it now. It’s like a reaction, and as soon as I hear it, I brush it off, like it’s nobody else’s business.”
