The story came from USA Today. In their article, Lucas admitted he was developing the new trilogy, a fact backed up by interviews with Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher who said Lucas asked them about returning in the summer before Lucasfilm was sold to Disney. However, he realized three films meant probably ten years and decided he wanted to be a father. Disney just so happened to get in touch around that time and that was that.
