She also noted that if they have kids, they want to wait a bit. "It's kind of one of those things, people say, 'Oh, we're waiting until we're ready to have kids.' You're never going to be ready. We will never be ready," she shared with Us. "You just have to do it, type of thing. But we want the little ones to be a little bit older."
