star Myleene Klass has candidly opened up about her daughter leaving for university, saying that she is experiencing ’empty nest syndrome.’
The 46 year old confessed to Express.co.uk at Cirque de Soleil: “My daughter is leaving for university this year and it’s like ‘Oh My Gosh.’ I absolutely have empty nest syndrome.
“I said the only thing worse than you leaving is you staying. You’ve got to see the world on your terms. She can’t live on my terms. She is at the royal academy already. She would like to do music. Who knows where she is going to end up. That’s so fun.”
Myleene, 46, is the proud parent to three children: Ava, 17, and Hero, 13, with ex-husband Graham Quinn. She gave birth to her third child, Apollo, in 2019.
Prior to giving birth to her third baby, Myleene has been very open about the difficulties of concieving and suffered four miscarriages before his arrival.

During an episode on Loose Women last year, Myleene left viewers emotional when she spoke about her baby loss. At the time, the panel discussed the recent introduction of baby loss certificates for bereaved parents.
Myleene shared: “I’ve had four miscarriages and I’ve only registered two onto my medical records. It’s important data for you and your children. I didn’t know my auntie had a miscarriage – it’s like having to keep ripping that band-aid.”
The presenter then became overwhelmed with emotion and apologised, with and Judi Love both consoling her and giving her tissues as she tried to compose herself.

It seems that Ava is following in the footsteps of her mother, who is an accomplished musician and singer. She originally shot to fame after releasing two solo classical albums in 2003 and 2007.
In 2007, she signed a contract with EMI Classics as both an ambassador and recording artist. She also embarked on a television career as a presenter on CD:UK with Lauren Laverne, with her first appearance airing in 2005.
She has also been credited on The One Show, Mastermind, New Year Live, 10 Years Younger and took part in I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! in 2006.
