‘I was always very career-focused’: In an interview with Kidspot in September, Michelle confessed motherhood was an adjustment for her
In an interview with Kidspot in September, Michelle said that motherhood had been a difficult adjustment for her.
She confessed that she initially did not know how to balance her time, and sometimes felt bad about prioritising herself.
‘I was always very career-focused, and now that I’ve got this beautiful little boy in my life, and three other amazing children, I realise now that it is critically important – for my own sanity, but also for them – to see that as a role model, that I look after myself, I give myself self-care, that I put myself as much a priority as I put them,’ she said.

Michelle told WHO magazine in June that she wasn’t sure if she would ever become a mother, before welcoming her son at the age of 45.
‘The honest truth of it was I was never really maternal,’ she said.
‘I loved my career, I loved my job. And I never really had that instinctual, “Oh my God, I need to have my baby”.’
‘We just love our life!’ While Michelle and Steve are yet to wed, or become engaged, they say they couldn’t be happier
