Cheryl Cole for British Vogue: “I’m a woman, not a girl any more”

She married Ashley in 2006 but after allegations of multiple infidelities surfaced, their union fell apart and was granted a quickie divorce in London’s High Court last week.

“I’ve just got to be grateful that I’ve got so many good things going on. I have. And there’s no children you know?”

However she surely wants to have babies: “That’s definitely something I want to achieve. It’s the toughest job in the world – but I know it must be the most rewarding too. I’m ready now. I’m 27. I’m a woman, not a girl any more. Thinking about yourself constantly isn’t so healthy.”

“I suppose that’s the point of having children, isn’t it? Being able to live your life through them instead of you, having them be your motivation? That’s the ‘right’ thing, I’m thinking – when you love someone more than you love yourself. That’s what I think about my mum.”

Some of the latest rumors say she is rumored to become a judge alongside Simon Cowell in the American version of X Factor, scheduled to debut on FOX in fall 2011.
