Girls Aloud star Kimberley Walsh is busy preparing to tour the UK - 21 years since she and her bandmates Cheryl Tweedy, Nadine Coyle, Nicola Roberts and the late Sarah Harding won Popstars: The Rivals. But away from fame, the 42-year-old star is a doting mum to her three sons, Bobby, nine, Cole, seven, and two-year-old Nate and shares the same relatable struggles as any busy mum. Taking a break from her hectic schedule, Kimberley sat down with OK! for a catch-up where she detailed the challenges of parenthood, her "tough childhood" and the upcoming Girls Aloud tour.
Not to mention the career change she could take on in the future following her various and impressive, home renovation projects. Having recently returned from a Barbados getaway with her husband Justin Scott and three children, Kimberly kept it as relatable as ever, admitting she was still making her way through piles of laundry. "I did loads the first couple of days [after she got back] and my husband’s case is still sat there and I’m just refusing to go near it as I’ve done four people’s washing already," she candidly said.
Anyone who follows Kimberley on Instagram would have seen her love for renovation projects, something she's been interested in since she was a child. "I grew up in a house with three siblings and my mum, who was a single mum and had no money," she recalled, thinking back to childhood times growing up in Bradford. She told us that "anything that was done in the house", her mum did it herself and it was done "on the cheap".
