Sinitta Holidays in Barbados With Her Children Magdelena and Zac After Adoption Heartache
0
Former singer Sinitta and children Magdelena, 5, and Zac, 4, took a family holiday to Barbados recently after it was revealed that she will no longer be adopting a third child as her adoption plans have fallen through. Speaking to Hello! magazine she said:
“I am very, very sad to say that, no it does not look as though I can have this baby now. It seems that I would need to be able to not work for 18 months to meet Social Services standards and, as I have two children to support,I can’t do that.”
She also explained how the whole situation had come as a huge blow to her because from the moment she’d found out that the birth mother would not be able to keep the child she thought of him/her as her own.
“Rightly or wrongly, I started to look on the baby as mine and felt an overwhelming emotional attatchment. It’s been hard to pick myself back up and not be depressed, because I really believed that this baby, my children and I would all be together. But I have to want what is best for the new baby, and it does bring me comfort to know [he/she] will go to someone who is able to stay at home and be with them, as I was with my two.”

TV Presenter Davina McCall Says She’d Love To Adopt Or Foster A Child
0
TV presenter Davina McCall has revealed that she and husband Matthew Robertson would love to foster or adopt a child one day. Although the pair have ruled out trying for another child they would love to help someone less fortunate than themselves.
Speaking in Now magazine Davina said:
“We’ve drawn a line under that. No more children. Matthew and I have discussed it. If there was an accident and I got pregnant, it would be a lovely mistake. But you will all know that’s exactly what it is. If I stepped down from work massively in the future – which I’m hoping not to do for a good few years yet – I would be interested in fostering. We’ve got a beautiful family and great kids – we’ve got a lot to offer. Matthew’s keen on adopting and I would like to foster. We’re open to ideas, so we’ll see.”
Davina and Matthew are already parents to daughters Holly, 8, Tilly, 6, and son Chester, 3.

Actress Katherine Heigl and husband Josh Kelley are set to adopt a baby girl from Korea.
Little Nayleigh is just 10-months-old and will be the couple’s first child.
Katherine told chat show queen Ellen Degeneres they named the new addition to the family after mum Nancy and sister Leigh.
“She was actually born the day before me in November which I thought was really serendipitous and just kind of like a sign.I realised just recently that I basically forfeited my birthday for the rest of my life.
She is a special needs baby and because of that it all moved so much faster. They wanted to get her to us as quickly as possible.”
The 27 Dresses star also revealed her sister Meg was adopted from Korea.
“My sister is Korean and my parents adopted her back in the 70s and so I just always knew that this is something I wanted to do.”
