Cheryl Cole thinks getting divorced was right.
The Call My Name singer - whose four-year marriage to soccer player Ashley Cole ended in 2010 amid rumours of infidelity - wants a "massive" family but doesn't believe her personal circumstances mean her life plans have gone "wrong" as she would rather be a mother later in life.
She said: "I'd love a massive family. I'm from a big family. I've got 10 nieces and nephews."
Asked if her life plans have gone awry as a result of her marriage breakdown, she added: "No, I wouldn't say wrong; I'd probably say right. My mam is like, 'You've done it the right way round. I didn't even know myself when I had children. You're at that nice age where you're developing into a young woman and you can give your children the things they need.' "
As well as having no personal regrets, the 28-year-old beauty also admitted she isn't upset about being sacked from the US version of X Factor after just four days last year.
She told The Observer magazine: "I think people think it was [upsetting] but it wasn't. I should probably care more than I do."
Two years ago, Cheryl contracted potentially-fatal malaria and admits it took a "long time" to come to terms with the fact she had been close to death.
She added: "It takes a long time mentally to come to terms with it. As it's happening, you're just going through it. Looking back you think, 'Wow, that was really near.' "
