Louise Redknapp has said she’s ready to find love again after son Charley, 15, gave her the go-ahead.
Louise, who was married to Jamie Redknapp from 1998-2017, says recovering from the split has been the toughest time of her life and she hasn’t spent a day alone in the last year as she “struggles” to cope on her own.
She said: “I’m very single at the moment, which is not a good thing.
“My eldest is 15 and super-protective over me. But he knows he can talk to me about anything and doesn’t need to be embarrassed, I’m so open.

“One morning he said to me, ‘If you ever did want to go on a date, I’d be OK with it’.”
Louise, who also has son Beau, 11, with ex Jamie, continued: “It was actually a big moment as he’d always been quite vocal that I’d never go on a date.
“They always hope their mum and dad will work things out.”

Louise’s comment come after she recently lifted the lid on the reason behind her split from the former footballing ace.
In an interview with the Telegraph, Louise shared: “I feel I’m coming back to who I really am.
“I have spent most of my life pleasing everyone else, worrying about being judged and thinking I should always do the right thing by staying at home, looking after my kids and my husband. I lost myself.”

She added: “I became a sort of Stepford Wife, wanting to be perfect at it.”
Louise also divulged in the interview she found it hard when Jamie transitioned from the world of football into the entertainment sphere, remarking that he had “stepped into her world”.
