“All of these things have to be discussed at length and agreed long before the egg donation process begins,” Sonia tells The Weekly.

In the six page magazine story, which features a stunning series of new photos of the mum-to-be whilst on a ‘babymoon’ in Hawaii with her partner, Sonia also reveals she is determined to protect the privacy of the egg donor.

“She has shown enormous generosity and given us so much already. The least we can do is respect her wish for privacy,” she tells The Weekly.

According to Dr Devora Lieberman, from leading Sydney-based IVF clinic, Genea, while back in 1971 only in one in 50 mums were over the age of 35, today it is one in five.
