They captioned the post: "2025 is going to be a special one for us…". Here, we take a look inside the notoriously private couple’s relationship - from their 'toughest moment' to battling ‘sexist baby questions’. Over the years the pair, who met on the showbiz circuit after both rising to fame as TV stars, have fielded questions about having children - but have made no secret about wanting a large family.

Back in 2018, Michelle told Women’s Health: "I've always been broody. I love kids, and I want four, so hopefully in the near future.". While in 2019, Mark told The Sun: "We say we're going to try [for a baby] every year but something comes up with work. So it'll be Michelle filming in South Africa and then I got the job in Los Angeles – so we think, right, we'll try next year.".
