Must read

Paloma Faith has said that she doesn’t believe women “can have it all”.

The award-winning singer, 42, who will be performing on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury this summer, said juggling her career and being a single parent hasn’t been easy.

Speaking to Radio Times, she said: “I don’t believe we can have it all.

“I feel a bit disgruntled about society’s expectation on women because we were given this idea that you could work and have your own money and independence while raising children.

“What we’ve ended up with is far too much responsibility, and I think a lot of women are burning out.”

Faith, who has two children under the age of 10, has been touring in the UK and Europe while dealing with childcare.

“I’ve got more energy than most but, frankly, I’m so tired,” she added.
