The TV host shares three very young children, Cal, Ollie, and Rusty, with her husband, Brian Fichera, and on Wednesday she opened up about their parenting struggles.

However, Dylan then went on to reveal that all was not what it seemed. "Ollie acting like he wasn't awake from midnight to 3am. Rusty acting like he hasn't been awake since 3am. Calvin acting like he didn't come in at 5:45am. Bosco acting like she didn’t wake up just to step on me throughout the night. @fishlense's face says it all."

Dylan admitted she has never felt so exhausted and wrapped up her brutally honest social media message with a confession. 

Dylan admitted she and her husband are exhausted and irritable 

"We're in it right now. If it's not one, it's the other one. Sleep is on short supply," she said. "I'm so tired I'm dizzy. 

"But no matter how tired and irritable I am, I couldn’t help but feel a little heartbreak leaving this morning. I miss them all the second I leave the house. That being said, I really do need a nap."
