In an interview with New Idea the inspirational athlete, Ms Pitt opened up about her future and wedding plans with her fiance Michael Hoskin, including their dream to have children together.

Packed schedule: Ms Pitt, who recently completed a triathlon in Hawaii, said their wedding plans have taken a back seat this year due to everything else they had on

'We're both big on family, so hopefully kids will be in our future at some stage,' she told the publication.

Plans on hold: 'The wedding plans have taken a bit of a back seat this year with everything else that's been happening,' she told New Idea

'We're both so active and adventurous, I'm sure that will be a big part of our kids' lives as well.'

In 2011 Ms Pitt suffered burns to 65 per cent of her body in a horrific bushfire during an ultramarathon in Kimberley, WA.

Ms Pitt described her fiance, who became her full-time carer for some time after the horrific incident, as genuine and caring. 'Michael brings out the best in me,' she told New idea.

She was assured by doctors there was no reason why she could not fall pregnant and give birth.
