However, after not finding Mr Right and finding herself single in her mid-20's she had decided to conceive without a partner.

She is not particularly religious and just had a very romantic view of life.

The Daily Mail reported that her two longest relationships had only lasted about three months. She had called off both relationships after she realised that she didn't want to marry either of the men.

She also knew that the longer she dated them the more pressure they would put on her to have more than a kiss and a cuddle.
