Fair City star, George McMahon shares what it’s been like going from one child to two, as for most parents it’s a big transition! George and his wife Rachel currently share two children together,Frankie who is three and little Kody who is 7 months old.
Speaking exclusively with VIP Magazine for this month’s issue he shared that although “It’s really nice watching them together” that it’s not always easy.
He said; “There’s moments though when it’s really hard with two kids, they’d have you exhausted running around after them. The difference between going from one child to two was big.”
“You’re always afraid to come across as if you have this perfect Instagram life where everything is rosy but it’s not like that, there are moments when we’re frustrated or we’re at each others throats over silly things because we’re tired or the kids are moaning. There’s a big mix and obviously the good outweighs the bad.”
Continuing, George shared that it has been lovely to see his eldest, Frankie adjust to becoming a big sister. He said; “He’s great. Frankie loves him. The more he engages with her, the more she’s enjoying being a big sister.”
He did add that it took a little adjusting for her to get used to the idea but that overall she loves having a little brother; “We kept telling her that there was a baby in mammy’s tummy but I don’t think she believed what was coming!”
“There’s been a couple of moments where she’s acted out of character and we can only put that down to her feeling a little bit left out, but she’s absolutely grand now which is great.”
George and Rachel welcomed their new addition, Kody into the world in June of last year. They announced the news to social media at the time, sharing a snap of the newborn’s tiny hand, captioned; “Yesterday our lives changed again for the better.”
“We welcomed Kody Bloom McMahon to the world. We are bursting with love.”
