I want more children – but you don’t need a man to have a baby, says Cheryl
‘Other routes I would consider’
SHE’S had a turbulent love life and several failed relationships.
But Cheryl Tweedy, who is mother to son Bear, two, has admitted that she’s now keen to have more children – with or without a partner.
The ex-Girls Aloud star has said that she is open to having another baby via a sperm donor as finding the ‘right man’ to settle down with isn’t a ‘priority’ anymore.
Ms Tweedy, 35, who split from Liam Payne, 25, in July last year after two and a half years of dating, said that starting a new relationship isn’t something she’s ‘even thinking about’.
‘You don’t necessarily need to be in a relationship. I’ve got a friend who has had two children using donors. Not everything has to be conventional,’ she told the Telegraph’s Stella magazine.
‘You can spend ages looking for the right man, waiting for the perfect time to get pregnant, then the right man might turns out to be the wrong man. There are definitely other routes I would consider.’
Ms Tweedy married footballer Ashley Cole in 2006 but they announced their separation in 2010 following his reported infidelities. She then married restaurateur Jean-Bernard FernandezVersini in 2014 after three months of dating, only to call time on the marriage at the end of 2015.
Asked if she was still looking for love again, she said: ‘No. Not right now – it’s so not something I’m even thinking about.’
She added: ‘I wouldn’t rule it out maybe at some point in the distant future. But it’s not a priority. I’ve found the love of my life and he’s absolutely enough for me.’ Ms Tweedy said that she giving birth to Bear finally ‘fulfilled’ her in a way that ‘money, fame, success’ never did. She said: ‘Everything changed for me from the moment Bear was born.’ Liam and Naomi Split: See
