Zac tells Erin 'I'VE FALLEN IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN'

Erin Simpson and Zac Franich have always loved the festive season, but now that they’re parents to adorable five-month-old Harrison, it’s even more magical.

“I just love Christmas,” says Erin. “I’m one of those people who thinks about presents all year. I’ve already got a Harrison-themed Santa sack, decorations and a Harrison Christmas teddy bear!”

Luckily, her hubby Zac, 34, is equally enthusiastic. “I’m into it from November onwards,” he admits. “I’m the person who’s happy when they hear Christmas carols in the supermarket. With Harrison on board, I’m 100% dressing up as Santa this year.”

For Erin, who battled a number of medical issues trying to conceive Harrison, spending the past five months looking after him has been a dream come true.

“Because I’m an older mum, I was ready for it – I was really ready for it!” the former children’s TV presenter laughs. “I mean, I’m 40, so I couldn’t have waited much longer, but it’s the right time for me to be a mum. Nothing is an issue. Being up at 2am and 4am? I’ve kind of loved it. I’ve loved being home. I love having the time to be with him.”

Zac couldn’t be prouder of the way his wife, who has never claimed to be particularly maternal, has taken to motherhood. “Watching Erin being a mum is probably the thing that has blown me away the most,” the 2017 leading man of The Bachelor NZ gushes. “She’s just really incredible. I don’t know how to explain it, but it’s like I’ve fallen in love all over again with her.
