Singer-songwriter Paloma Faith welcomed her first child into the world back in December 2016, but that hasn't stopped the 37-year-old being one of the most successful female singers in the UK.

Speaking to Sarah-Jane Crawford, Paloma revealed how she manages touring whilst being a mum to her baby. The 'Never Tear Us Apart' singer told Sarah-Jane she takes her little one with her whilst on tour, revealing she no longer does the 'after-show celebrations' due to her baby getting up early.

The singer, who has been with her partner Leyman Lahcine since 2013, also opened up to Sarah-Jane about he copes with her writing songs about him.

Although she said, "I think he's kind of comes to terms with it," Paloma revealed it's her job and it's her way expressing herself. Revealing the Frenchman is a painter, Paloma also told Sarah-Jane that Leyman does the same, adding she arrived home one day to a portrait of her with a guy with a plastic bag on his head.
