In an interview with Us Weekly, she revealed just how uncomfortable Joe is on the topic: “He just doesn’t get it. He just looks at us all cross-eyed, like every time we talk about anything with Antonia and a boy. The fact that she’s a sophomore. Hello? This is when it happens, and the sex talk happens. It’s just a real-life thing. He gasped for air; he can’t even say the word. It’s so ridiculous.
“I’m like, ‘Joe, I don’t know what generation or world you think we’re living in, but you better, like, bring it together here because this is not how the world is right now.” And the difficulties of raising children has put an end to any desire for further kids. She added:
“I’m, like, worried all the time [when] she wants to go to a party. She needs rides. ‘Are you in the car? Do you have your seatbelts on?’ It’s a whole different world. [More kids] are completely out the window,” the reality star said. “It’s like, I’m going to end that part of my life and start a new one. I have three healthy kids. Like, I’m good.”
Nevertheless, the decision was not one taken lightly as she did admit she considered having another child. She continued: “I was like, ‘Wow. I feel like I’m really hitting a point here in life where everything’s about to change. ‘I’m going to end that part of my life and start a new one. I don’t know if I’m ready to end it yet. Should we pop out one more?
“Should we keep this going, the toddler baby thing? Because I don’t think I’m ready to throw the towel on that.’ That was the conversation. I felt like it was now or never because once you hit 40 and have three, it would be kind of silly to go back.”
Let us hope the couple can keep their family in check and avoid any disasters. If you enjoyed reading this article, then make sure you check out our other features on the Daily Soap Dish.
