Susan Boyle wanted to marry Piers Morgan.
The singer developed a crush on the TV presenter while competing on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ in 2009 and revealed that her ideal man would be a hybrid of Donny Osmond, Simon Cowell and Piers.
She told the Daily Mail: "[My ideal man] would have Donny’s voice, Simon’s good looks and Piers’ sense of humour.
"I would have married Piers, but someone else got there first."
Piers tied the knot with Celia Walden – his second wife – in 2010.
Susan, 55, also opened up about her date with a "handsome" doctor she met in Florida last year and her disappointment that they did not embark on a relationship.
She said: "We had fish and then ice cream, just the one glass of wine.
"It was a date, it felt romantic, I had met someone nice at last.
"We kept in contact. I wish I’d kept up the relationship, but it just wasn’t practical. I just felt at the time it wasn’t right."
Meanwhile, Susan has a new album, ‘A Wonderful World’, but admitted she worries constantly about disappointing her fans.
She said: "Like any artist, I worry about people still liking me, I worry about going stale. I have a role to play. People have expectations of me. They see me as a pillar of society and I don’t want to let them down."
