Rebecca Ferguson has said that she is ''happy'' being single because it means she has time to focus on her career.
The Nothing's Real But Love singer, who previously dated One Direction star Zayn Malik, explained that she is happy to spend time by herself because she would get distracted from her career if she was in a relationship.
Contact Music quote the singer as saying: ''I'm single and happy. When I'm in a relationship I fall hard and it distracts me. Like right now, I'd just be sitting here texting them when I should be working."
However, the mum-of-two admitted that she knows the exact qualities she wants in a man, saying: ''My ideal man would be Ryan Gosling - that body! I like the athletic look. But it's not about looks for me, really. I always go for someone with a good heart.''
When asked if she is still in touch with One Direction's Zayn, Ferguson further pitched in: ''I don't ever speak to Zayn. But I wish him well.''
