Penny's married life with Sophie and their children

Penny, who came out as a lesbian on July 1, 2002, had not spoken much about her personal life until the issue of same-sex marriage rose. Then, she revealed her relationship with Sophie Allouache to raise awareness about the issue and boost it.

Even though Penny and Sophie are together, they have not given the details about their marriage or their relationship. Probably, they have been together for a long time after getting married in a secret ceremony.

You might be thinking, Penny and Sophie are parents, but how? Well, their first child, a daughter named Alexandra, was conceived by Sophie through IVF. The couple revealed about Sophie's pregnancy back in December 2010. After his birth, Alexandra was all over the internet in August 2011.

While the issue of same-sex marriage gained much traction in Australia and was carried to the legislature there, Sophie and Penny were blessed with another child again. The couple became parents to their second child, whom they welcomed on April 7, 2015.

Penny, in her tweet, talked about the baby girl and said that they had named her Hannah.

Penny also revealed that Hannah was conceived through IVF, like her elder sister, and that the sperm donor was the same person in both cases. However, she also added that she wanted to keep the person's identity secret.

When Penny was asked about time management after she became a mother, she gave an easy and inspiring reply:

The unfortunate reality is that Sophie does the Lion's share of the work and we're lucky to have my mum and Sophie's parents , who are very supportive.

Penny is really an inspiring and strong woman. Best wishes for her future.
