Kylie Minogue believes she was ''deluded'' into thinking that her relationship with her ex-fiancé, Joshua Sasse, would work out.
The 49-year-old singer parted ways with her actor boyfriend last year amid allegations that he was unfaithful, and she has now revealed that at first she thought their romance ''needed saving'', before realising it was time to call an end to their relationship.
Speaking to Vogue Australia, she said: ''I think we all know that things were not going great in my relationship, but, you know, when you're kind of deluded and you're thinking maybe, maybe ... maybe this needs saving. Turns out, it didn't.''
Minogue said working on new music following her split has "been good to kind of centre" her.
''I've learnt a lot about songwriting ... having two weeks in Nashville, that changed so much for me," she added.
The Spinning Around singer admitted that her split from Sasse prompted her to try having children without a partner, but has now decided that she's happier being an aunt to her sister Dannii Minogue's seven-year-old son Ethan.
''I did pursue that. That obviously wasn't the path for me, either. But, I think now I love being an aunty."
''And I mean, if I was to meet anyone - that sounds really gloomy - but if there's one person on the planet Earth who might like me and I might like them, the chances are pretty high that that person would have children anyway. So I think it's more (likely) in that vein, than having children of my own.''
Minogue is set to play Dublin and Belfast this October as part of her Golden Tour.
