"I have an amazing partner, a stable job, a home, no massive complications and it's still so daunting and knackering at times. My mum was a single parent before meeting my stepdad and I just have no idea how single parents do it. Actual heroes, honestly."

Musing on her experience of breastfeeding, she shared: "The lows, Urgh mastitis is hell! And it can feel so exhausting at times! The first few months I felt like a dairy cow! But my confidence grew and watching your baby grow is amazing."

Most recently, they upped sticks and relocated from London to Liverpool where they now live in a dreamy family home complete with quirky artwork and Scandi-inspired interiors.

Of their relocation, Kevin told the Liverpool ECHO: "She [Stacey] just happened to have seen something she liked and thought, 'Oh it's not too far away from my mum'. We went and had a look and the second she walked in was like, 'I love it and I can really see us living here'. It all happened really quickly and we love it."
