She also shared her hopes of having her own children one day. Kate shared: “We would like to have a baby but there’s no set time.

“Where is the love life?! We’re getting a little bit of time here and there, but I wouldn’t call it couple time.

“We’re busy, our time together might be talking about cleaning the toilet, rather than ‘Oh, I love you so much’!”
