The 36-year-old TV presenter and her partner Kevin Clifton - who she was partnered with on Strictly Come Dancing in 2018 - welcomed Minnie into the world in January. The new parents are focusing all their energy on parenthood and Stacey revealed she still hopes to have more children in the future. However, former Strictly star Kevin says she's too 'over-tired' to think about expanding their little family. "I think I would love to have more babies. But I said to Kev the other day, 'Don't you want to do this again?' And he went, 'Are you nuts? You're over-tired!" she explained. Speaking to The Sun, she added: "I don't know how people have four children. I've had one and am completely failing." Last month, Kevin revealed he's taking a break from work to focus on fatherhood. He explained: 'I left Strictly Come Dancing and then Covid happened. "Then since we came out of Covid I've sort of gone back-to-back with different shows non-stop. It went Singin' in the Rain, Rock of Ages, The War of the Worlds, Burn the Floor. "Then I did The Games on ITV, Who Do You Think You Are? and then back to Singin' in the Rain on tour. Then I started rehearsals for Strictly Ballroom the day after I finished Singin' in the Rain.' Kevin told Digital Spy: 'By the time I finish in mid-July it will have been a 10-month tour of Strictly Ballroom. So since we came out of Covid it's just been back-to-back non-stop." He added that he wants to spend the rest of the year being a dad as he steps back from performing. The dancer doesn't want to 'miss any of Minnie'. When the two welcomed Minnie, they took to social media to announce the happy news. The prese){kind=link}
