Happy family!
Her new relationship with Chris came after she lost her husband of five years, Greg, to brain cancer in December 2010.
Carrie has previously told Woman’s Day that she and Chris ‘connected’ and bonded over both losing loved ones: ‘He lost his brother in a car accident.’
In her column for Stellar on Sunday, she doted over her partner Chris: ‘He works hard, is hands-on with the kids, isn’t scared to cook (if you like sweet chilli sauce on everything), and will happily do the washing (he may accidentally machine wash your delicates) but, point is, he isn’t afraid to dig in.’
She also labeled his mother her ‘mother-in-law’ and praised her for becoming her ‘savior’ over the past few years.
‘She pops round with mountains of meals, will hang up the washing and looks after the kids. I can’t imagine what I would do without her,’ Carrie stated.
Meanwhile, Carrie previously described her last pregnancy as ‘traumatic’, admitting that she needed counselling to deal with childbirth as it was a ‘full-on thing’.
Sharing the candid details on her Hit Network Carrie and Tommy radio show, she told co-host Tommy Little last year: ‘I found it so traumatic come the birth of my second child, I actually had counselling to get myself okay to be able to give birth to Evie because I was so scared after the first experience.’
‘It’s beautiful, it’s special, but it’s also traumatic. It’s painful – I would have done anything to have the experience erased from my mind,’ she added.
