Did you know while Alison was pregnant with the couples son, she worked with a trained and did a lit of boxing and walking! About becoming a dad for the second time, her hubby said “It’s great. Obviously we’ve been used to babies with Amber, so it’s been lovely second time around and it’s nice for Amber to have a baby brother. We’ve automatically adapted to being parents. Now having a boy and a girl we’ve got a full team and it’s definitely brought Alison and I closer together.”
