Lisa Riley reveals potential change of heart over her decision not to have children

After her drastic and life-changing weight loss, it appears that Lisa Riley may be reconsidering her decision not to start a family...

Lisa Riley has made a candid confession in her new book that now has people questioning whether the actress has changed her mind about never wanting to 'have a child naturally.'

The Mirror revealed that in an extract from Lisa Riley's new book, Honesty Diet, the star confesses to potentially changing her mind about getting pregnant and starting a family.

Previously, the former Emmerdale actress claimed that she had made a conscious decision that she was 'not going to have a child naturally' but that she may 'consider adopting' if she ever decided she wanted to have children.

However, after her drastic and life-changing weight loss, it appears that the 41-year-old may be reconsidering her decision.

'I don't know why I did it but the first question I asked before my surgery was, would I still be able to have children?' The Mirror reports Lisa reveals in her new book.

'Why did I ask that question? I wanted to know would the skin be able to stretch? Would the wound open up? I actually shocked myself.'

Lisa originally revealed her plans not to have children 'naturally' during an appearance on Loose Women last year.

'I've thought about it long and hard and I discussed it, especially with my mates at home' the star revealed.

'They've got loads of kids and I live my life vicariously through them by being a great godmother.'

'But for me, I don't want to put a child through the pain that I went through’ she continued, referring to the tragic loss of her mother, who passed away from cancer in 2012. 'Seeing the last three years of my mum, I couldn't do that to my child.

'So I've consciously made the decision that I'm not going to have a child naturally. I'm not.

Lisa has lost an incredible 12 stone in just a year and a half, and her new book Honesty Diet tells the story of how she achieved her incredible weight loss, as well as including day by day plans to follow in order to achieve the same amazing results.
