In an interview with the Daily Mail, Lee opened up on how he and Kerry went through a period of time where they felt “resentment” towards their friends who were expecting or already had babies.
“We’ve wanted a baby for so long. We did start thinking, “Why isn’t this working for us? What’s wrong with us?”
“You doubt each other slightly, but luckily we have a very strong relationship.
“We went through a time where all of our friends were pregnant and people were always walking past us with prams and I guess we hated that and had a bit of resentment towards them, which I know we shouldn’t have.
“It was difficult and frustrating.”
Lee never officially left steps, but he was absent during the final shows of thei last tour alongside fellow members Claire Richards, Lisa Scott-Lee, Faye Tozer and Ian “H” Watkin.
The concerts took place in 2021, where Lee unfortunately fell ill with COVID-19 and couldn’t perform.
