While she and Jake tied the knot in 2013, they initially struggled to fall pregnant due to a fertility battle. The model and businesswoman later discovered she had endometriosis.
“As a woman and a type A personality, I’m used to planning everything. I think this will happen, then this will happen. It seemed like a lifetime as month after month people constantly asked us when we were going to have a baby,” Jen told Stellar Magazine in 2019.
But by October 2019, Jen and Jake were parents to their precious daughter, Frankie Violet. During an appearance on The Morning Show, the smitten new mum made it clear that it’s the highlight of her life.
“It seemed like a lifetime as month after month people constantly asked us when we were going to have a baby.”

“There’s so many things you laugh about, like the spews and poos and everything that happens. You’re with them 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so it feels like she’s been with me for two years. You’re up feeding, sleep deprivation, everything. Everything changes when you become a mum.”
The parents’ brood of three grew to a perfect four when their son Hendrix Hawkins-Wall came into the world in October 2021. Now, the family can’t get enough of each other as they continue to make many memories.
