Denise van Outen’s boyfriend is desperate for children

Denise van Outen’s boyfriend is desperate to have children.
The 43-year-old actress started dating her beau Eddie Boxshall three years ago, after she split with husband Lee Mead – who Denise has seven-year-old daughter Betsy with – and though the blonde-haired beauty is open to having a child with her new partner, she doesn’t know if she could go through a pregnancy again.
Speaking on ‘Loose Women’ on Monday (30.10.17), she said: "Eddie gets really broody. He would have one tomorrow if he could.
"I go through waves if I’m honest. I’ve got one child Betsy, who is seven, but I think, I am so lucky to have her but for me it’s that thing of thinking I have to go through it all again, the sleepless nights and everything.
"Whereas for him, he will do it at the drop of a hat, if he could. He would share it. But don’t get me wrong, if I fell pregnant I would be over the moon but I can’t overthink it because I just don’t know."
Denise has revealed she has a good relationship with her former partner, and she has claimed there is "no animosity" between the two.
Speaking previously, the ‘Run For Your Wife’ star said: "It’s amazing. We’re really lucky. We get on so well. There’s no animosity with Lee.
"When you have a child with something it’s all about the kid. It’s an organic thing. He can come and see her every day.
"Lee comes around to eat once a week. Sits with Eddie. They sometimes annoy me together. If you can dig deep and make it work, do it. It’s rewarding for your kid and you.
"Betsy, it’s lovely for her. She talks about us as a family. When she draws pic at school, she’ll put Eddie in the pic too.
"We’re all in it. Encourage it. Lucky that Lee is such a kind, special person."
