MKR finalists Dan & Steph will 'spend all the money on IVF' We want a family ... Dan and Steph reveal why they took on MKR. There's only one reason Dan and Steph Mulheron went on reality television: to win enough money to fund further cycles of IVF treatment and fulfil their dream of having children. We need the money to do what we want to do - and that's have a family. The Queensland couple are closer than ever to winning the $250,000 prize money in My Kitchen Rules, after making it through to the show's grand final this Sunday night. Steph Mulheron, 31, has opened up about the couple's hopes of affording further fertility treatment if they win this series of the top-rating program. "We truly were in there, every day, to start a family," Steph said. We have to go through IVF which costs a lot of money. We've been through it last year and it was a negative result. Now that we're on MKR, obviously that was the path that we're meant to take - [but] every day we never forgot why we were there, we had our eye on the prize every day. We don't want the money, we need the money to do what we want to do - and that's have a family," she says. "If we [win] and spend all the money on IVF and having a family then at the end of the day we'll be happy," she added. The couple faced heartbreak last year when they underwent their first cycle of IVF, at a cost of $15,000, which was unsuccessful. Steph said it is a tough situation for so many families going through IVF to face the expense as well as potential heartache. "To do our first cycle it cost us about $15,000 and we're just normal people who work week-by-week and live week-by-week, and we had to go and get loans," she said. To have such a negative result and still have to pay a loan off, it is tough. But Dan and I have got a positive attitude towards it, we just think that's the cards we've been dealt. "Being angry about it isn't going to fix anything, so let's get on with it," she added. To win My Kitchen Rules and have the money ... it would be a big relief to not have to worry about how we're going to pay for it. The couple are still optimistic that medical expertise will make a difference. "We're very lucky, we have a lovely doctor in Brisbane that we've been dealing with and he's just amazing," she said. We'll go and visit him again ... hopefully in the not too far future.
