Cheryl Tweedy "feels differently about everything" since she welcomed her son into the world

She said: "I think I’m still adapting in some ways. I just feel differently about everything to be honest - my views on everything have changed. Firstly you see the fear in everything, like sharp edges. Your whole being changes because it’s not about you anymore. If something happens to you it doesn’t matter as much but if it happened to your child, the impact would be severe."

And the 34-year-old singer has confessed she worries about the future of social media and what it will be like when Bear is older.

She added: "I do worry about where social media will be headed by the time he’s old enough to have it, you know? It’s scary. I’m so glad I didn’t have social media when I was growing up. We didn’t have any of that.

"I’m glad I was able to have a popstar life without camera phones in those early days. Everyone’s a paparazzi now. Then you just signed autographs. Nobody wants those anymore!"

Now Bear is six months old, Cheryl is looking forward to getting back in the studio.

She told Vogue magazine: "What’s interesting is that I love music now more than I ever did. The baby loves music too, and I always played it throughout my pregnancy. So back to the grind, back to popstar life, back to recording. It’s all fun again.

"I haven’t released music for a long time but it’s good to clear your mind - silence and tranquillity and beautiful things happening to me has helped me to see things differently."
