Jesinta and Buddy also share son Rocky together, who they welcomed in March.

The mother-of-two admitted at the Vida Glow launch event in Sydney that life was ‘crazy’ with her growing brood.

‘Two under two is crazy,’ she told The Daily Telegraph.

‘Both of them together, the love doubles but your time and your attention has to be split now. It is really hard having to divide that time and the attention and the love sometimes too.’

Hard: 'Two under two is crazy,' Jesinta told The Daily Telegraph. 'Both of them together, the love doubles but your time and your attention has to be split now'
