“It comes with a lot of history and the family that it is. It’s obviously nerve-racking,” Mike said. “But she has been under enough scrutiny and pressure in her day-to-day life so I’m sure she will get through it. She will be fine.”

“As long as they are both happy that’s all that you can ask for. I’m sure she’ll do absolutely fine,” he added.
