"But for me, it’s always about learning from my mistakes and learning from things that might not necessarily be mistakes and little hiccups and things that can happen in life. I'm very aware of everything going on around me and know what I have to do to be the best that I can be. "Among the things Nick is looking forward to is becoming a first-time father.

"It was really hard on Nick. Just watching him get so excited about something, and see him get so hurt, it was hard," she said.
