Kelly Rowland has admitted that she loves the UK so much, that she plans to buy her own home here.

The Destinys child star has stayed in hotels so far, as she films for The X Factor, but she wants a more permanent base if she is to pursue a career in Britain and told The People that she would like to put some roots down.

Rowland said:

“I’ve been looking for a house over here and I’ve found one I love. Fingers crossed it will go through.”

“I didn’t think I would love it as much in the UK as I do and I am having the time of my life here.

“I love everything about London and the surrounding areas, it is so cool.”

However, despite claims that she is dating her manager Tim Weatherspoon and some recent pictures of the pair looking pretty loved up and at ease in each other’s company, the brunette beauty went on to insist that she is still single.

However, the 30 year old star would like to get married within the next decade. She added:

“I am a single girl right now and I am having so much fun dating. I am happy. Dating is wonderful.

“But hopefully in 10 years I want to be married. I want to be wifed up by then with at least three kids.

“I will love all my babies when I have kids. I just want to be a mum now. That would be ­awesome to me.”

How much would Kelly suit a baby bump? We think she should get working on that one right away!
