“We were supposed to get on a boat and go drinking the next day and I was so seasick, it was a crazy birthday. Everyone was crazy and dancing, I hadn’t told anyone about it and I was so sick on the boat.
‘I was so excited. Rio was so excited that we were looking forward to having a sibling Cree’s age because the big kids are so much older.
“We just thought it would be nice for him to have a boyfriend running around. The kids timed this time so we told them and a family this time.
