Kylie Minogue on split from fiance: My physical system was compromised
The singer has spoken of her heartbreak following last year’s break-up.
Pop star Kylie Minogue has told of her heartbreak following her split from her fiance last year.
Minogue, 49, and British actor Joshua Sasse announced their engagement in February 2016, but parted ways a year later.
The Australian singer told The Sunday Times magazine she headed to Thailand after their split to take a break.
She said: “I just wanted to stop. I knew I needed to heal my… my physical system was compromised. I think it’s called a nervous breakdown.”
Minogue confirmed their split on Instagram.
“Thank you now for your love and understanding with the news that Josh and I have decided to go our separate ways.
“We wish only the best for each other as we venture towards new horizons.”
The Spinning Around singer, who will turn 50 this year, said having children is not on the cards.
She said: “Of course I wonder what that would be like. But your destiny is your destiny and I can’t imagine, if by some miracle I got pregnant… at this point in my life, I wonder, could I even manage that?”.
She said she could envision herself being a stepmum.
She told the magazine: “It would be a lie to say there’s not a bit of sadness there, but I don’t get caught up in it. I can’t. I mean, what can I do? And there’s a high probability, if/when I meet someone, that they will have children anyway. So I could imagine being a stepmum.”
