Last year Martine became a mum for the first time when shewelcomed a son, Rafferty, with her husband Jack. Speaking exclusively to HELLO!magazine, the singer said: "I used to think, when I heard people sayhaving a child was their most life-changing moment, that they were just sayingthat because it was the expected thing to say.
"Now I so get it. I have never been so inlove, so content and so full of happiness in my life. My mum always said to methat it is a love like no other, and it's absolutely true. This baby boyis the love of our lives."
