Piers and Celia share 9-year-old daughter Elise, who they've been trying to protect from the situation.

Celia told her daughter to stay in her bedroom while the panic button was being installed.

The journalist added that she came up with a, 'convincing lie,' for when her daughter asked what the button was for.
