Speaking about her future plans, Jane said: “I think it’s made me realise actually, how many summers have we got left.

Sharing her news, Jane went on: “You know, and I want to be here for my family.
“You know, my niece is just about to have a baby and we’re all very excited about that.”
The star went on to reveal that she’s planning to step away from her hectic schedule and take time to “slow down”,
“And I want to be around, I want to be around for them all just for a while to like sort myself out and then stop working as much as I do, because I work constantly,” she explained.
“So you’ve got an exclusive there because they only think I’m only doing one year, but I’m now doing two,” she cheekily quipped to Kaye.
Jane added: “Because I want to have a bit of downtime, I’ll still be doing all the TV shows and that’s great. You know, I love that.”
However, Jane admitted that she struggles more with one aspect of her work more than when she was younger.
She told Kaye: “But the touring I found now is harder than it used to be and I’m thinking well, why? Why are you doing it, just have a bit of a break and see how you feel.”
