And a new bundle of joy means a new little one to spoil for Ireland. The blonde beauty admitted that because of the wide age gap between Carmen, three, and Rafael, one, she is more than just their sister. “I’m more of like their aunt cause I’m significantly older than them,” she confessed at the Sherri Hill fashion show in New York City.
