‘Dancing With the Stars’ hostess and mother of four Brooke Burke sat down with the new issue of Redbook to dish on motherhood and finding time for date nights with fiance David Charvet.
“When I was a new mom, I used to think that life was going to be balanced, and I strived for that. I gave up on the expectation that everything was going to be picture perfect.”
“Balance is a joke.”
Despite having a house full of kids, (Neriah, 11, Sierra, 9, Rain, 4, and Shaya, 3), she and David find ways to sneak in some alone time:
“So maybe on Sunday night, we’ll go out to dinner at a favorite Malibu restaurant. Or at home, we get the candles, the music — the whole deal — and we close the bedroom door.”
“We have a rule in our house that you have to knock on closed doors.”
“Someday the kids might be like, ‘I smell the candles. I hear Maxwell playing’ . But thank God they’re not old enough to figure that out yet. I do not want to have to explain that one!
