Frankie Bridge reveals why she doesn't ever want her husband Wayne to get a vasectomy
Frankie Bridge has revealed that she doesn't want her husband Wayne to ever get a vasectomy.
The Saturdays singer, 36, has said that she wouldn't want the former footballer, 44, to get the procedure in case they don't end up together and he decides he wants kids with a future partner.
The pair share children sons Parker, 11, and Carter, nine, while Wayne has son Jayden, 18, with his ex Vanessa Perroncel.
And Frankie has now told The Sun: 'I'll be honest, I don't want him to have one. You just never know what's going to happen.
'Having a vasectomy is a door shut for me, it's also a door shut for him. You know, we might not end up together and he might want another baby.

The Saturdays singer, 36, said she wouldn't want the ex footballer, 44, to get the procedure in case they don't end up together and he decides he wants kids with a future partner
'Or something might happen to me, and he might still want another child, because men can do it for as long as they want.'
Frankie added that she decided a while ago she doesn't want a third child as she suffered with severe sickness (Hyperemesis gravidarum).
She explained that after two kids she was ready to get her life and her body back and when the conversation about a third child came about the gap between her youngest and a new baby would be too big.
Frankie and Wayne wed in 2014 at Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire surrounded by their celebrity pals.
It comes after earlier this month Frankie revealed that she has been suffering from an 'awful' illness that has left her 'completely wiped out' as she opened up about her secret health battle.
The Loose Women star took to Instagram to open up to her 1.5million followers as she explained that she has been suffering from gastroenteritis.
In the candid video, Frankie revealed that her 'immunity has been so bad' after suffering from gastroenteritis - an inflammation of the stomach - back-to-back.
The singer, who was dressed beige T-shirt and tracksuit bottoms, said she has been having other 'tests done' and has also been on 'antibiotics for a bad tooth'.
Speaking from her kitchen, Frankie shared: 'Hi guys it's been a little while and I've said a couple of time that I've been ill a lot lately so I thought I would give you an update.
'I've basically had gastroenteritis twice back to back. Which I very rarely get to be honest and it has completely wiped me out and been awful. I feel like my gut has massively suffered and it feels still really fragile.'
According to the NHS, gastroenteritis is a common inflammation of the stomach and intestines caused by viruses, bacteria, or parasites.
It typically manifests with symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, and stomach cramps, but can also include fever, fatigue, and headache.
Frankie continued: 'My immunity has been so bad and all while that has been going on I've been having tests done and I couldn't take my daily Symprove.
'On top of all of this I've been on antibiotics because I've had a bad tooth and I feel like I've noticed a massive difference in my immunity.'
The Saturday's star concluded by telling fans she has since been 'given the all clear' by doctors.
She added: 'I'm finally over it and I'm hoping it's the last time because I've been given the all clear to get back into my daily routine. I'm happy to be back and it's nice to be back in a routine.'
Elsewhere, Frankie recently confessed some of her biggest regrets during her height of fame as part of The Saturdays girl band.
She rose to fame alongside Rochelle Humes, Una Healy, Mollie King and Vanessa White in 2007.
The band was formed after they were chosen from thousands of hopefuls on the television series S Club Search to appear as a support act for the pop band.
But she told The Savoy Originals podcast that she 'didn't like' all the singles they produced during their height of success.
She said: 'It wouldn't matter if you didn't like a single, that single was coming out whether you liked it or not.
'There's a few singles that don't exist in my head because I didn't like them, and you have to still go on TV and say, 'Buy this single, it's the greatest song ever, and perform it, whether you like it or not.
'And that's fine because some of them you like and some of them you don't.'
The singer-turned-TV star also revealed she did not earn enough money to retire despite all the group's success.
The mother of two previously explained she began to feel like 'two different people' during her time in the group and would have to switch on her public persona while out with the band.
Speaking on Olivia Attwood 's S o Wrong, It's Right podcast, Frankie spoke about suffering from anxiety since she shot to stardom at a young age in S Club Juniors.
Frankie said: 'I didn't go to school. We were home-schooled while we're on the road. I get really confused and lost in the time, I think I was like 15, 15 when S Club Juniors finished and then the Saturdays started when I was 17.
'So, it was a little gap and I had a couple of like normal jobs in between.'
She said: 'I think pop music and TV and that kind of thing in the public eye, no matter how successful you are, the minute you stop doing it, everyone sees you as a failure.
'I always had stomach aches. Can you remember Pepto Bismol, the medicine, the pink horrible stuff?
'That would be in my bag every day because I always had a funny tummy, like nervous stomach.
'At bedtime I couldn't breathe properly and things like that. So I think the anxiety was there but I didn't know what it was.'
She continued: 'I'd have blood tests all the time and things like that and obviously nothing ever came back and then it wasn't what it is now, do you know what I mean?
'But I for me, the first time I realized that it was a proper issue was actually in the Saturdays.
'And I think for a while I'd been coming home from work, going straight to bed, not wanting dinner, just wanting to go to bed, cry, go to sleep.
'Bed was a safe space. But I didn't realize that that was not okay. And it wasn't until we were on tour and we used to do meet and greets before the show and I remember gathering myself outside the door.

Unassuming corner shop was seen by millions on classic 70s sitcom – but would you recognise it?
A CORNER shop from a classic 70s sitcom went under the hammer last year and is now an unassuming home. The building quietly sits in the Balby suburb of Doncaster in South Yorkshire. 5 5 It went under the hammer with a guide price of £150,000, before selling for £145,000 in October. It's likely that those living next-door have no idea that the building was once on one of Britain's most iconic TV shows. Open All Hours, which aired in 1976, ran for four seasons. It was rated the eighth best sitcom in the country in 2004. The show ran from 1976 to 1985 and had 17 million viewers a week at its peak. Created by Roy Clarke, the plot followed Albert Arkwright, who runs a grocery shop in Doncaster's Balby and is in love with Nurse Gladys, who lives opposite his shop. But Gladys rejects his proposals as she has to look after her ill mother. The fictional shop owned by Arkwright - played by Ronnie Barker - used a residential property for exterior shots. After the show ended, the building went up for auction but failed to sell. It was earmarked for demolition before campaigners saved it in 2008. The property was then concerned into a unisex hairdressers, called the Beautique hair salon. Auctioneers hoped that the property's TV history would attract plenty of bidders when it went to auction on October 16 with a guide price of £150,000. The building came with two self-contained flats on the upper floor and boasts an annual rent of £16,440 when fully let. Film crews moved in for weeks at a time for each series of Open All Hours. The end-terrace on Lister Avenue in Balby, less than a mile from Doncaster city centre, became a tourist attraction over the years. But now, those passing by would never guess at the house's history and fame. 5 5 Sir David Jason reveals touching gesture from Ronnie Barker after legendary Open All Hours star retired By Caron McKinlay ACTOR David Jason revealed this morning how the late Ronnie Barker gave him a touching gift. The two men worked together on classic sitcom Open All Hours from 1976 to 1985. During an appearance on Chris Moyles' Radio X show today, Sir David recounted how Ronnie gave him a certificate with fancy old fashioned writing. Chris asked if the writing was Calligraphy and David replied: 'Yes, that's it. Yeah.' David then went on to reveal that the certificate was about a foot wide by about two foot long . The certificate said 'Sir Ronnie Barker will give to his honourable friend, Sir David Jason, the title of The Governor which he shall now relinquish.' Chris and David agreed that the certificate was a lovely thing to do and then David asked Chris if he could guess where it's displayed. Chris correctly guessed it was displayed in the downstairs toilet and they both laughed. David went on to say that: 'Ronnie B was, which I learned, so generous with the whole team." He said that Ronnie knew that the only way you can get a successful show is to incorporate and encourage the team that you have. He said: "So, he had time for everybody, and he was generous of spirit and of time." David then said: "And because you do hear – no names, no pack drill – mainly some of the big names coming out of Hollywood who can be extremely difficult and a pain.'

'One last promotion party before looking to challenge ahead'
After five weeks on cloud nine, the Premier League table has officially refreshed for next season and Leeds United are alphabetically 11th - stop the count!The Kaiser Chiefs gig at Temple Newsam, celebrating 20 years of their debut album "Employment", felt like one last promotion party before attention turned to the challenge club anthem "I Predict a Riot" featured twice on the night - as Leeds' number nine turned guitarist Patrick Bamford took stage for a one-off performance with the band. The Championship trophy was present too, along with a crop of Bielsa-era three clubs promoted from the Championship have gone straight back down in each of the past two seasons, and so we are led to believe that any prospect of Leeds surviving is doubtful.I think if you unpack it, none of the clubs promoted in that time have had any big-club pull or mentality to do some smart, serious business in the transfer window. Leeds and Sunderland will both have for what he has gone on to achieve, is undoubtedly up there with the most ground-breaking transfers out of the Premier League since Gareth Bale in 2013 - having only spent two seasons at Elland sheer scale of Leeds United, its rich history and renowned fanbase, means they are naturally a more favoured TV selection for the numbers generated. All this, accompanied with the foundations in place and money at play, makes Leeds the more appetising stage for a certain type of factor next season is that nine clubs have qualified for European football, which will perhaps give Leeds an edge in games against weakened or fatigued sides.

James Argent's ex girlfriend Nicoline Artursson breaks silence on shock attack with emotional statement
Nicoline Artursson has broken her silence after ex-boyfriend James Argent's shock attack on her - and revealed the 'real reason' for his violent outburst. Former Towie star Arg, 37, turned on model Nicoline, 32, while they were at their home in Spain last month. 5 5 5 He was arrested and spent several hours in police cells before admitting a charge of domestic violence in court. Now Nicoline has spoken out in a statement - confessing: 'My fractures on my body have finally healed but I'm wounded inside.' Recalling the traumatic experience, she said: 'I was brutally thrown out of our new home in the middle of the night wearing only my pyjamas. 'I opened the door to let him in and only minutes after I found myself laying down on the stairs outside our house. My clothes and belongings were being thrown out from the balcony down on me. I was injured.' Nicoline also placed the blame for Arg's violence with constant clashes over his ex-girlfriend Lydia Bright. Shortly before the attack, while in a new relationship. And Nicoline claimed she and Arg often clashed over Lydia's involvement in their romance. She said: 'I felt there were too many people in our relationship: me, my boyfriend and his ex. 'Three's a crowd', they say. 'I asked so many times if we could be just the two of us, but the answer was a strong NO. Watch James Argent shamelessly dance on stage before holding fan 'meet & greets' on return to Spain after attack on ex 'I experienced what I can only describe as targeted emotional distress which he allowed to continue.' Nicoline continued: 'After being together for one year my boyfriend finally promised me that he would have boundaries. 'He would put a stop to all that had been going on for months. 'But he didn't. Instead he broke the promise and her controlling behaviour continued. The rest is history.' 5 Nicoline Artursson's statement in full It's now been a month. I still can't believe it. My fractures on my body have finally healed but I'm wounded inside. I've been quiet long enough. Silence protects no one - and it almost destroyed me. What started as a love story sadly turned into something else. Behind the pictures, promises and the plans for a life together - the beautiful days - changed into something into sadness with emotional manipulation and eventually physical harm. I loved deeply, believed in our future and stood by someone I thought would protect me and instead I was left alone and harmed in ways I never imagined. I was not only failed by him but deeply affected by the presence of unresolved ties to his past. Yes I posted an Instagram story with a simple yes or no question about if your ex should be a part of your present relationship. I felt there were too many people in our relationship: me, my boyfriend and his ex. 'Three's a crowd', they say. I asked so many times if we could be just the two of us, but the answer was a strong NO. I experienced what I can only describe as targeted emotional distress which he allowed to continue. The ex and her family put us through so much misery and false accusations, I won't go into details. They had no reason whatsoever to do what they did to us, but for some reason they wouldn't let go and let us enjoy our love. Everybody knows that real friends support you and want to see you happy. So I posted a story on Instagram. After being together for one year my boyfriend finally promised me that he would have boundaries. He would put a stop to all that had been going on for months. But he didn't. Instead he broke the promise and her controlling behaviour continued. The rest is history. I was brutally thrown out of our new home in the middle of the night wearing only my pyjamas. I opened the door to let him in and only minutes after I found myself laying down on the stairs outside our house. My clothes and belongings were being thrown out from the balcony down on me. I was injured. Thanks to incredible neighbours who heard and saw what happened and acted, I got help. They called police, brought me to safety and ensured the incident was taken seriously. A gentleman does not abuse you and end up in jail and call you the love of his life. A gentleman does not blame you for his actions. A gentleman will confide in his partner, family and close circle of friends, keeping them close and safe. A gentleman chooses you always and leaves the past in the past - including exes. Life is to be lived together and not to please people who want to take advantage of you. At the end of the day, fame can only do so much - it's all about being strong and growing together. Life is simply not a reality TV show, life is real. I have tried to understand why. I have cried so many tears thinking about the way he chose to hurt me. He said he loved me and I believed him and here we are. There is now a legal record of what happened. Violence has no excuse - no matter how much love preceded it. To those who questioned me for staying as long as I did: I stayed because I believed in love. I believed he and we could grow, could heal, could choose peace. But love doesn't survive in chaos. And it cannot survive where violence lives. To every woman reading this: if you've ever questioned your worth, your safety or your sanity in a relationship - this is your sign. You deserved to be loved with care and integrity. And you are not alone. To the men: real strength is protection. Real love is safe. Be the kind of man who lifts women up - not one who breaks them down, neither by violence or silence. To the future: never say never. I will get the little family I've always dreamed of and have my dream wedding to symbolise and celebrate true love in front of my dear family and friends. I'm healing now. Slowly, bravely and unapologetically. I will rise and I will use my voice - not for vengeance but for truth. For every woman who's been silenced by someone who said 'I love you' and then proved otherwise. This is not just my story. It's a reminder: abuse - whether emotional, psychological or physical - has no place in love.
