Los Angeles Feb 18 (IANS) Singer Kerry Katona says she finds it hard to raise five children.
"Being a mum is everything to me. First and foremost it s my purpose in life. It s the best thing but don t get me wrong -- there are times when I want to sit in the bathroom and cry it s hard.
"I am doing it all on my own -- and I ve had some terrible relationships -- but at the end of the day I ve got my kids to show for it and they are what I m most proud of. Every single day I can look at them and know that I ve brought them up myself - and I m incredibly proud of that."
The 37-year-old star split from George Kay in 2014. Though she had known their marriage was over for some time she still spent a long time "grieving" for their relationship in the months afterwards.
She said: "In the last few months I knew that our relationship was over. At one time I was blinded because George was just so handsome but his ugliness on the inside came through in the end. When we did split it was horrible. It was like a death because we d previously been together 24/7."
"Once I d kicked him out it was grieving process but I knew it was right. Now I finally realise that I can live without him and I m excited for the future."
