“I was like, ‘Man, I really have so much respect and love and appreciation for single parents,'” Vanessa told PeopleTV. “You have to change everything how you attack the day and everything you think you are wired for is different. I need this partner to just hang out and talk to at the end of the day. “

But ultimately, before meeting Nick, she couldn’t wait to meet a great guy, have healthy and happy babies, “to live this life of love – and I’m here. to come to, to come now. “

“Why we got married and why I love this man”, Vanessa explained to E! News in 2018: “Even though he’s toured the world and has lots of avid fans, both women and men, he’s still the Ohio guy who wants to go outside and rake the … drainage ditch.” That anecdote was causing a little cause, he said, she said, but “my point is,” Vanessa exclaimed, “we are very active in our family and we want to be active in our children’s lives and that’s why I love this guy.”

“And the good news,” added Nick, “is that we really enjoy being parents. It’s fun.”
