Telly host Jennifer Zamparelli has revealed she wouldn’t rule out fostering or adopting children in the future.
The 2fm star and Dancing With The Stars presenter spoke candidly about getting sterilised after she gave birth to her second child. But the 42-year-old – mum to Florence, seven, and Enzo, four – said: “I wanted loads, yeah, because I loved kids… but it just happened later in life and [husband] Lau is adamant we would only have two.
“Now I’ve come to terms with that, but I probably would’ve tried to sneak [another] one in. The first child was an emergency section, the second one was a section as well and literally I had such a bad pregnancy, I was so sick the entire time on the two of them.

“I said to the surgeon, like while you are down there, you might as well. I talk about it quite a lot on my radio show and Cormac Battle openly says he’s had the snip. But what I found quite odd was if a guy is going to have the snip, there’s lots of chats and counselling ‘are you sure’ but this was thrown at me in my worst possible state.”
She told Amy Huberman on her podcast Mamia & Me: “I don’t think making a decision to have my tubes tied when I was so sick with the pregnancy... it is and was the right decision now in hindsight but at the time I had a lot of regrets about getting it done when I did.
“I didn’t think about it enough. It’s unlike the snip because it is not reversible. Like it is a huge thing to have done.
“That was difficult, that was really difficult but like I said I’m really happy with the two kids but who’s to say down the line that I won’t foster or adopt, which might be an option.”
