Pregnant Pixie Lott reveals baby's due date as she prepares to jet off to Nashville to make new music just weeks before
PIXIE Lott has revealed the due date for her second baby. But weeks before she gives her son Bertie, 23 months, a sibling, the pop star will be jetting to Nashville to work on new music. 5 5 The Voice Kids favourite, 34, is seven months pregnant and performed an energetic, hit-packed set at Kendal Calling last weekend. Afterwards, she sat down for an exclusive chat with The Sun and revealed she'd been given the green light to keep performing for "as long as it feels good". She said: "I think the last gig [Flackstock, Aug 8] is going to be four weeks before the due date. So yeah, I think it's going to be fine. "I did it last time and I've checked with the doc and he said that it's fine to keep doing it as long as you feel good. So hopefully, I mean that last show, four weeks, I don't know how long... Woo! [laughs]." Family woman Pixie was joined at the festival in Lowther Deer Park, Cumbria, by her husband Oliver and son Bertie, both of who supported her from side of stage. After the set, Pixie settled straight back into mum mode, proudly introducing the youngster to new faces backstage. Bertie's presence on the road fills her with joy, even if parenting is more tiring than dancing and singing on the stage for an hour. "It's more tiring being pregnant, waking up early and running around after him than the shows," said Pixie. "Because with the shows I get like an adrenaline that takes over so I don't even think about it. The tiring bit is the running around after the toilet fight. "We've done so many festivals and he just comes along for the ride. He does like it and I'm pleased now he keeps his ear defenders on. Because at the start he just wants to take them off the whole time. And then you're like, 'oh you can't watch the show!'" Last year Pixie released her top 10 album Encino, featuring the single Somebody's Daughter, and the music hasn't stopped flowing since. Her personal new single, Coming of Age, got a great reception at Kendal Calling and will be released on August 21. She also recently wrote a 'heartfelt' Christmas song with a friend that she's hoping to perform live in the festive period. Pixie said: "It's very heartfelt, but honestly every song that I'm going to be putting out is just going to be about my state of life now, so like having a family, and we're expecting our second, we've moved house, and just like this state of life. "I think a lot of people are able to relate, hopefully, because we're all going through the same kind of changes, and I just want it to be as real as possible." She continued: "All I want to do is literally write songs of how I'm feeling at the moment, and put them out, and that feels really good for me because as a young artist I always had to wait a long time for things to come out. "I'm going to Nashville at the end of the month, and all the songs and stuff that I'm going to be creating, working with the people I'm going to work with, I just want to put them out, and not be held back." Having been in the industry for 18 years and accomplished everything from three number one singles to 1.6million in album sales and a prominent role on an ITV talent show, Pixie really has seen it all. She loves the independence her success has given her and is enjoying the new generation of female acts coming through from Lola Young to Skye Newman and Sienna Spiro. 5 5 "Obviously when you're a new artist it's really exciting," she said. "I've learnt so much that I didn't know before. I feel like I've been doing it all my life. But in terms of now, you know, deciding what music I want to do, who I'm going to work with, and having way more control in that side of things. "At the start you've got no clue, you're 18. So in a way it feels changed to be at the stage where I know what I want to do more clearly." While music is the priority, Pixie would welcome a return to TV on The Voice Kids, which ITV shelved in 2023 after seven series. She was one of the celebrity mentors alongside Danny Jones and Ronan Keating. In the last series to air, she was pregnant with Bertie. Now, she'd relish a chance to guide talented youngsters with the experience she's gained as a mum. Of a potential return, she said: "I absolutely loved doing it. We did seven seasons, and they said it's taking a rest, so I don't know when the rest is up. "I would love to [return]. The talent that they found on that show. Bertie was in my belly for the last season but he wasn't actually here. He would absolutely love it. We should definitely bring it back." And if the right offer came along, Pixie would be willing to consider opening the doors to her family life for a docuseries. She said: "I think if it was something that felt right, if it was about my own life and our world, alongside what we create in life with music or any profession. "I love watching those music documentaries that are on real stuff, great ones on BBC and ITV. I would like to, but depending on what it was, it has to feel right."
