Speaking with Yahoo Life about her parenting approach, she revealed that she has yet to allow Charlotte and Rocky to be on social media.
"Our rules are probably stricter than most," she admitted, saying that: "Our kids don't have social media."
She explained: "They're allowed to look sometimes when it's our phones," and though they can sometimes complain, she joked: "Sometimes, our kids will be like 'You guys are the strictest household!' But I say, 'Yes, but everyone still wants to come here!'"

"And the same way I abide by my code of rules, I expect the same from our children," she said.
