Lauren’s father Bert has previously said his grandchildren have given him the happiest time of his life.
“They wouldn't realise it at the moment, but they have made this one of the happiest times of my life,” he said.
“There is that old saying, "The wonderful thing about being a grandfather, or grandparent, is that you give the kids back".
“But in the case of Patti and myself, we don't want to.”
