'I want like 15 kids'

He said: "I'm ready; I think she's ready. The first number that pops into my head is three, but I just want one to be healthy and then we'll see where we go after that."
"It's really easy for us guys to say, 'I want like 15 kids', Jenna will be like, 'Well you better get another wife!'"
Despite the couple's busy work schedules, they make sure to spend time with each other by having a rule by where they never spend too much time apart.
