“Everything was nerve wracking,” she laughed.
But the most anxiety-producing moment of the dinner was a party trick almost gone wrong.
“I sabered a bottle of champagne and I for some reason blacked out and forgot that I was standing right behind his head,” Ayesha explained to the shocked host and her fellow guest. “So Secret Service was kind of inching in and I didn’t realize until after.”

“For so many years, Stephen and I thought we were done,” she wrote in a letter published on theSweet Julysite. “We said, ‘Three, that’s it, we’re not doing this again.’ And then, last year, we looked at each other and agreed we wanted to do this again.”
The pair are already parents to daughters Riley, 11, and Ryan, 8, as well as son Canon, 5.
