Comedian Sara Pascoe, 43, reveals she struggled to have children biologically due to the stress of her job and admits she loves being a 'midlife mum'


The comedian, 43, who is married to actor Steen Raskopoulos, 37, welcomed her sons Theodore, two, and Albie, 13 months, via In vitro fertilization ( IVF ).

Speaking with Prima magazine on Tuesday, she said: 'My partner really wanted to try to have children biologically, whereas I was very open to adopting, as I just didn't think it was going to happen because of fertility issues, age and how stressed I was with my job. 'I’ll see you at gigs later in the year when I’ve stopped crying every three minutes, lots of love ❤️❤️❤️ ps last photo is @steenrasko I think his face sums up the post partum period very well.' The news was announced earlier in the day by The Great British Sewing Bee's social media page, as they tweeted: 'Sending lots of love to Sara and her new baby!'
