Young continued, “I’m raising Tarek’s babies, and we have them 50 percent of the time. I am such a good bonus mommy. I adore those kids. I raise them like they’re mine. I wouldn’t be able to do it any other way.”

The actress added that their home life also did not need the extra chaos an infant would bring. Young is too busy to be pregnant as “Right now, our household is freakin’ crazy. I’m filming TV shows, I’m raising kids, I’m building businesses, so right now, no.”
