‘Sex Is An Effort Now That We're Parents'

Heiress Tamara Ecclestone reveals the impact being a mum has had on her marriage and social life – but admits she’s a better person because of it

She raised eyebrows last week when she confessed that she lets her four-year-old daughter, Sophia – who she still breastfeeds – sleep in bed with her and husband Jay Rutland. And Tamara Ecclestone – who first revealed that she embraced “co-sleeping” a year ago – admits to Closer that the controversial sleeping arrangement has unsurprisingly impacted on her love life.

She says, “My sex life has definitely been affected. We’ve only been married for five years and sex was never a problem before – but we have to make the effort now that we’re parents. When you have a family, life can get in the way. We have to find other times and other places to do it!”
