Failed to restore: type object 'Member' does not have attribute '_default_manager, django 1.10

Question

I have the following problem: When I try to remove a participant from my database through a template, I get the following error:

an object of type 'Member' does not have the attribute '_default_manager

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, because everything seems as normal as possible. Below you will find my model, view and template fragment for my problem.

GENDER_CHOICES = (
    ('M', 'Male'),
    ('F', 'Female'),
)


class Member(models.Model):
    """Model for a member"""
    surname = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    names = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    gender = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=GENDER_CHOICES)
    dob = models.DateField()
    # anniversary = models.ForeignKey(Anniversary)
    email = models.EmailField()
    phone = PhoneNumberField(help_text='Please, use this format +3232')
    address = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    suburb = models.CharField(max_length=255, choices=Suburbs_list, default=Suburbs_list[0][0])
    province = models.CharField(max_length=255, choices=Provinces_List, default=Provinces_List[8][1])
    country = models.CharField(max_length=255, default='Unite Kingdom')
    previous_church = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    added_date = models.DateField(default=datetime.date.today)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.surname

    class Meta:
        ordering = ['-suburb', 'province']

And my Delete View:

class DeleteMember(LoginRequiredMixin, generic.DeleteView):
"""
This view will be responsible of deleting an member
"""
model = Member
template_name = 'members/delete_member.html'
success_url = reverse_lazy('website:home')

and my form:

class MemberForm(forms.ModelForm):
dob = forms.DateField(widget=extras.SelectDateWidget, label='Date of Birth')
phone = forms.CharField(label='Phone Number',
            widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': '[phone]'}))

class Meta:
    model = Member
    exclude = ['added_date']
    error_messages = {
        'phone': {
            'max_length': _("Please use this format [phone] ."),
            }
    }

and my delete url:

url(r'^delete-member/(?P<pk>\d+)/delete/$', DeleteMember.as_view(),
        name='delete_member'),

and in the template:

<a class="btn btn-danger btn-edit" role="button" href="{% url "website:delete_member" pk=member.id %}">Delete</a>

And my trace:

Internal Server Error: /delete-member/1/delete/

    return self.model._default_manager.all()
AttributeError: type object 'Member' has no attribute '_default_manager'

I would appreciate any help.
