The Spice Girl – who has a 17-month-old daughter, Bluebell Madonna, with former lover, screenwriter Sacha Gervasi – believes motherhood has been a blessing and given her the motivation to be the best she can be.
Geri said: “So many women today are single parents, I don’t feel different. I think you get out of life what you put into it and Bluebell was a beautiful accident. I feel blessed to have her.
“I’m learning every day as a mother. I’m learning that she’s like a flower that thrives when it gets sunlight, and the sunlight is confidence, and I feel that when I’m confident it gives her self-esteem. And that gives me
motivation to go on and be the best.”
Geri, 35, also revealed becoming a parent has made her a more compassionate person.
She added to the Guardian: “At first I was a single, young Bridget Jones kind of woman. I was operating in a selfish world. Now I’m a mother my compassion has expanded.”
The singer – who is currently preparing for the Spice Girls’ comeback world tour which kicks off on 2 December in Vancouver, Canada – would love another child and is even looking into the possibility of adopting.
Geri said: “I’m open about it and I’m educating myself at the moment.”
