She then opened up about what that time frame would look like before turning the question to fans.

"I'm having serious doubts atm and thinking of taking a vow of celibacy," Martha joked alongside a photo of partner Michael Brunelli, 36.

The star then shared an adorable snap of 19-month-old son Lucius and added: "Jokes, I would love to have more kids."

During the Q&A, Martha also revealed she's been "craving routine" lately and "been staying home, which is extremely odd for me".

She also clapped back at an online critic who questioned her and Michael's choice to live under the same roof as Martha's parents.

"Our living arrangement has nothing to do with money," she replied.

"The sad thing is you probably believe we live with my parents to capitalise off of the situation, that is furthest from the truth."

In reality, Martha said they enjoy living in a multigenerational home.
