When quizzed about tying the knot and starting a family, Molly told OK!: "Yes, we definitely talk about it because we’re obviously serious. We know it’s going to happen one day but we’re not in a mad rush for it. We’re just loving what each day brings and taking our time with things. We’ve got our heads down to get renovation done and dusted and enjoying the process. So yes those are things we definitely want, but it won’t be any time soon."

She went on to admit she's "not in a rush for children", and spoke about how she and Tom have thrown themselves into their house renovation, adding: "I’m loving it. I’ve been getting the drills out and knocking walls down. We want to be in the thick of it because we want to feel a sense of achievement and think, 'We did this.'"
