McCrory explained that her marriage to Lewis is thriving because she married someone she likes and loves.

McCrory and Lewis’s wedding was followed up by a lovely and short honeymoon that reportedly lasted only one night. By the next morning, they started life as a married couple.

THEY BECAME PARENTS

Before tying the knot, Lewis and McCrory had already gotten a headstart on being parents. The couple welcomed their first child, daughter, Manon in 2006.

While speaking in 2006, McCrory described their newborn daughter as very calm and beautiful. She continued and added that motherhood was life-changing.

In addition to Manon, the couple is also parents to son Gulliver. The family of four reportedly live in London, where they have resided for a while now.

While parenthood is undoubtedly challenging, the couple has managed to hold it down to the best of their ability. Sometimes, this requires coming together to make big decisions.

In 2018, Lewis revealed that after welcoming their kids, he and McCrory decided to keep working so they could have enough money to provide and cater for them.

The actor added that although he heard of parents who take time off work to raise their kids, he and McCrory decided it would be best if they keep working.

Despite the decision to continue working, Lewis and McCrory have tried to be as present in their kids’ lives as possible. This means adapting strict parenting methods sometimes.

In 2019, McCrory revealed that she banned Manon and Gulliver from using phones or iPads. This was in a bid to reduce the pair’s time on screen and the internet.

According to the actress, she would like to raise children who are more interested in human conversations rather than staying on the phone.

Parenthood might have its ups and down but for McCrory and Lewis, raising grounded children is important. Despite their busy schedule, these two sure make parenting look easy!
