Ten years on since her split from Prince Andrew, the Duchess of York has revealed that she's ready to expand her family – with or without a husband.

In an interview with British newspaper The Observer, the mother-of-two says she's hoping to have another child. "If I'm past the age of having another baby, I'll adopt," she says. "Either way, I will have another baby. Maybe on my own."

Speaking while on a trip to Sierra Leone from her charity Children In Crisis, Sarah says her philanthropic work and role as Weight Watchers spokeswoman has allowed her to regain control of her life after constant press stories and jokes about her weight problems chipped away at her self-esteem.

"It took my opinion of myself to absolutely nothing, a piece of dirt," she says, adding: "Maybe I had to reach that point to start to put myself back together."
