Sandra Bullock Single ParentCelebrity single parent Sandra Bullock says, Louis is the No. 1 man in her life! Sandra Bullock revealed in a recent interview that she’s quite content being a single mom to son Louis, 3 — but she’s open to playing the field

“If [a relationship] should come along, great. But I feel like I’m not missing anything yet,” she told Entertainment Weekly of being single. “Maybe one day I will. But my son is 3 years old, which is an amazing age. Four is an even better age. So if something happens, great, but if not, I’ve got plenty to do.”

The Oscar winner previously went through a very public breakup in March 2010 when it was revealed that her husband of five years, motorcycle customizer Jesse James, cheated on her with multiple women. Just two months earlier, Bullock brought home her adopted baby boy.

Now, three years after the bombshell, Bullock is making headlines again with her Oscar-buzzed film Gravity, and the several hilarious antics that surfaced while she and costar George Clooney promoted it. In November, the 52-year-old silver fox joked that Bullock tends to drunk dial him at night.

“Yeah, I heard, I heard. You know what? I’m so embarrassed for him because I think he’s showing his vulnerable side,” Bullock joked back to EW. “It’s a booty call. But then he wants the commitment and the marriage and I’m like,’Dude, I don’t have the time.’ And he’s all, ‘But I’m not a one night stand kind of guy.’ Well, then, I can’t.'”

She quipped: “Drunk dialing is what it is, George. I just need an hour of your time.”

Ricky-Martin-single-fatherRicky Martin insists it isn’t “difficult” being a single father.

The ‘Livin’ La Vida Loca’ hitmaker – who split from boyfriend Carlos González Abella in January – gives his five-year-old twin sons Matteo and Valentino “a lot of love” and enjoys their life together.

Asked if being a single parent is tough, he said: “I don’t know anything else, so this is the journey that I embarked myself into. I made the decision to bring my kids into this world and it hasn’t been difficult at all. My kids have a lot of love.”

The 42-year-old star is pleased his latest single ‘Vida’ is already a hit in his household, though it took a while for his sons to approve the track.

In an interview with ‘Entertainment Tonight Canada’, he said: “With my latest single ‘Vida’, when we started working on it they were just not listening.

“And then we did some fixes, rearranged it and then all of a sudden, they were like ‘Oh!’ and now it’s all about, ‘Daddy, are you going to sing ‘Vida’?’ ”

Ricky is currently working on his tenth album but knows it will be time to give up his music career if it ever becomes “stressful”.

Asked for his top tips in surviving the music industry, he said: “Rule number one, you have to have a good time. The moment you find too much, you’re making music stressful you have to stop.”

Real Housewives of New York City‘s Kelly Bensimon is a single mother, and according to Kelly, it’s not easy.  Here’s what she had to say about single parenting:

“I am a single parent and it’s not easy. For anyone who is a single parent, it is nothing to be flippant about. It is really, really difficult. I have to work as well, and it’s something that I’ve always done. I’ve always worked and I’ve always been a single parent. This is my life and it’s how I am trying to raise my kids. I want them to have really great values. I don’t want to be that parent that’s like, “I work so much that I kind of spoil them.” I am trying to give my kids those Midwestern values that I find very important.”

The Real Housewives of New York alum recently hosted the launch of Original Scent, the new luxury scent bar in Pasadena. The reality TV star, 44, raves about the new “boutique where you can make your own personal fragrance.”

Kelly opens up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about her daughters – Sea, 14, and Thadeus, 12 – who are her “greatest luxury.” She goes on to talk about the difficulties of single motherhood and her greatest regret from appearing on RHONY, saying the show did not accurately portray her life.

Single Parent Love Life

Connie Britton loves being a mother, but she does admit that being a single parent can be particularly challenging when it comes to her love life.

The Emmy-nominated Friday Night Lights actress (who next stars in the primetime drama Nashville) confesses that she’s ready for love, but there’s no time to pursue romance.

“I have no sex life right now,” Britton, 45, revealed during Lifetime’s The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet on Thursday. “I keep thinking about how I could do it, how I could pull it off.”

In November 2011, Britton adopted an Ethiopian baby boy, Yoby, after waiting three years for a referral. Now that she’s adjusted to life as a mother, Britton jokes that she’s ready to get it on. “I’m just talking about how I get laid while I have a baby,” Britton laughed.

Britton is only half-joking because she said she’s “in great shape to meet a man” but doesn’t “have time” to juggle dating and working with taking care of little Yoby. “When I go home, I have my little guy.”

Starting a Family as a Single Parent

The decision to start a family without a partner was difficult, but ultimately worth it, Britton explains.

“There was a lot of grief about having not started this journey with the man who was going to be my partner. I anticipate finishing it with a man who’s going to be my partner,” Britton said. “I definitely had to grieve that, but I also didn’t want to wait anymore. I absolutely know that this was something that I want for my life, and I’m really fortunate… and I feel like I can do it.”
