Jess Wright 'desperate for children' with fiancé as pandemic halts wedding plans

Jess Wright is reportedly "desperate" to start a family with her fiancé William Lee-Kemp.

The former TOWIE star and sister of Mark Wright, 35, is said to be eager to have children but she wants to tie the knot first, although her wedding plans have been brought to a halt amid the coronavirus pandemic.

A source close to Jess claims she wants to do it all the "right way" but it's been proving difficult due to the current circumstances.

"Jess is desperate for children," they told New! magazine. "She's beyond broody and she knows time is ticking. She'd have children tomorrow if she could, but she wants to get married first and do it all the right way."

The brunette beauty was set to have a lavish wedding ceremony in Majorca in June, but her plans have been pushed back to September.

"She doesn't want to wait, so she's hoping the wedding can go ahead and they can start planning for a family right away," the source concluded.

Jess recently opened up about the stress of the wedding and how she feels the postponed plans will affect her chance to start a family.

"It's just s**t," she said on her Girls No Filter podcast. "I always say, because of my age, that's the only problem because of having children. If I had three years on me, if I was two or three years younger, we'd have of course moved it [the wedding] to next year or the year after.

"But we're not in that position unfortunately and that's why it's been so stressful."

The Mirror has contacted Jess' representative for comment.
