Abbey shares daughters Sophia Ruby, 13, and Liberty Rose, nine, and sons Johnny, six, and Jack, five, with her former footballer husband.

"It’s really intense having four kids in four different schools," Abbey explained.
Not only does the set-up require numerous drop-offs and pick-ups for the parents, it also means Abbey is part of four different WhatsApp groups for school mums.
The couple said that they spend most days "delivering children around different places."
They reflected fondly on the days when it was just their oldest child who had so many extra curricular activities to attend.
"Obviously with the big age gap with Sophia it was [just] ferrying one around but now it’s impossible," Abbey explained.
"Thank God we’ve got friends in the area whose kids are doing the same thing so we can share it."
Each of these parenting techniques has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. The key is to find a balanced approach that aligns with the family's values and meets the child's needs for a healthy, happy upbringing.
"We’ve been so lucky with the weather, it’s been great so we’re up and out," Abbey explained.
"The kids have been doing all their fun stuff, I’ve really enjoyed [it]."
Peter added that their children's busy weekend schedules is actually a blessing in disguise.
