Most celebrities gloss over any problems in their lives and present a smiley, happy front – but not Myleene Klass. The singer and TV presenter has given one of the most revealing interviews we’ve ever read, and even confessed that she felt like killing her fiancé Graham Quinn shortly after their daughter Ava was born. “I am tired, tired all the time,” she says. “Sometimes I feel like crying because I am so tired. People say I make it look easy, but I don't have any of the answers, I'm still trying to figure things out. My relationship with my fiance Gray has been under huge pressure and I have never felt so lonely and isolated. I wonder how other working mums do it – how do they make it look so easy? Things haven't worked out the way I thought they would and just when I think I'm getting there, something else comes along. Some nights you have changed the baby, fed the baby and tried to put her to sleep but she is still crying and you feel like the worst mother in the world. I might look like I'm smiling, but that's my job.” She says, in the interview with The Daily Mail, that she and Graham went through a particularly rough patch last year. “In the weeks after Ava was born I genuinely wanted to kill him," she says. "I was knackered from looking after the baby and then he would come home and say something worthy of murder like: 'Jeez, I'm so tired, I haven't eaten all day.' I wasn't in a good place and I even told one of my friends that I was going to leave Gray. He couldn't understand why I wasn't his old Leenie – he thought I should be back in my old clothes, but I could barely get out of my pyjamas. Gray is a great dad and he is the same person he always was, but somebody took my body and shook it up and I have changed. I can't understand all these people who talk about how wonderful their relationship became after having a baby. It is hard on a relationship. We will never be back to normal it's a new place we have found. I just want him to appreciate what my day is like. I don't need the sympathy or adulation, I just want some understanding.” However, Myleene doesn’t want people to think she’s whinging. “I don't want people to think I don't appreciate my life – or that I am moaning,” she says. “I know that I am lucky. Sometimes I walk around my new house and I can't believe it's mine. And when Ava wakes me up in the morning by grabbing my nose I know I have never been happier. All I am saying is that while being a mother is the most fulfilling thing I have ever done, it hasn't been easy. I know I have a privileged life, but I work hard for privileged life. I like to work and I like to feel I have achieved something. I'm not the prettiest, or the most talented and I've got wobbly bits and a lazy eye, but I make up for it with sheer hard work. I like to push myself and be the best I can.” Blimey – we’re actually quite shocked by her honestly. But we’d be interested to know how Graham must be feeling now that Myleene’s told the world all this…
