Natalie Imbruglia felt something was "missing" before she had a child.
The ‘Torn’ hitmaker welcomed a baby boy Max, now seven months, into the world last year and admits she had "yearned" to become a mom.
Speaking to Baby magazine, she shared: "I’m used to pushing the laws of probability in terms of what I’ve done in life. I’ve always managed to do things that are unlikely or improbable. Looking back I had lovely friends, had been married, a beautiful home and a career that I was proud of. But I’d long been at the point where I knew something was missing and that thing became something I yearned for above anything else."
Natalie revealed last year she was expecting after conceiving thanks to IVF treatment and a sperm donor.
Alongside a picture of her meeting to sign the contract with the label team and a selfie of her cradling her bonny baby bump, she wrote on Instagram: "I’m very happy to announce that I have just signed a record deal with BMG!! What an AMAZING team. I have been busy writing for the past year and a half and can’t wait to share these new songs with you all!!!! And as you can see from the pic.. there is another announcement… (no I haven’t swallowed a watermelon). I’m expecting my first child this Autumn. For those of you that know me, this has been something I have wanted for a very long time and I’m blessed that this is possible with the help of IVF and a sperm donor-I won’t be saying anything more on that publicly. I’m so excited about this next adventure… a new album and I’m going to be a mum! (sic)"
When her son was born in October, she took to social media to share the happy news, writing: "Max Valentine Imbruglia … My heart is bursting #myboy (sic)"
