Hilary Duff: I’ll have kids when I’m ready

The actress-and-singer married Canadian ice hockey player Mike Comrie earlier this year. He popped the question with a $1 million 14-carat ring in February, while the pair were holidaying in Hawaii.

Although Hilary does want children eventually, she and Mike will only start a family once they have achieved other things in life.

“We’re not. We’re not thinking about it at all,” Duff said on American radio show Valentine in the Morning, after being asked whether she and Mike were thinking about having children. “We're excited to have kids. But we don't want to do it now.”

The 23-year-old explained she and her 30-year-old husband have more pressing matters on their minds at the moment. The couple only tied the knot six weeks ago, and are yet to get in touch with guests following the ceremony.

“We haven't sent thank-you notes out yet. Can we get that out of the way before?” she laughed.

Hilary and Mike married in August in Santa Barbara. They exchanged vows in front of 100 family members and close friends. The ceremony was held at sunset and the bride walked down an aisle strewn with rose petals and candles.
