Previously Michelle had revealed that the decision was no one’s business but their own.

She doesn’t want it to all be about babies, which she feels will just leave them stressed at the idea of a deadline looming over them.

She said: “You don’t know the background of what’s happening. It’s no one else’s business. In this day and age, you shouldn’t ask questions like that.”
