A few years back Helen confessed that the only reason behind her marriage was for economic reasons. As the reason was money we can guess that even though this couple didn’t frankly share about their bad relationship or show people getting separated they weren’t having quite a good relationship. She also told that they don’t really prefer sending Valentine cards to each other or even often forget to mark birthdays with a present.
"Taylor and I aren’t remotely romantic with each other. And actually, we appreciate the lack of romance in the other person. I'd be completely horrified if Taylor gave me Valentine's card! That's not our sort of relationship at all – we would pour cold water on that sort of thing."
Both Helen and Taylor used to forget each other birthday present, "We even forget to get each other birthday presents – I'm always thinking the day before, "Oh! I must get Taylor something for his birthday." Without being corny, we try simply to be considerate to each other every day rather than lavishing each other with gifts.

As this married duo didn’t have a romantic love relationship even being a husband and wife may be this is the main reason they don’t have any children. Lack of communication was also the reason given by Helen for the sort of relationship they have as she doesn't really talk to Taylor a lot.
