Cheryl Cole On Divorce: Grateful There's No Children

X Factor judge Cheryl Cole opens up about her divorce from Ashley Cole in the October issue of British Vogue. She married the soccer player in 2006 and was granted a quickie divorce in London's High Court last week. Their union fell apart after allegations of multiple infidelities surfaced.

On the split she optimistically says, "'I've just got to be grateful that I've got so many good things going on. I have. And there's no children you know?"

However she does want to have babies someday.

"That's definitely something I want to achieve. It's the toughest job in the world - but I know it must be the most rewarding too. I'm ready now. I'm 27. I'm a woman, not a girl any more. Thinking about yourself constantly isn't so healthy.

"I suppose that's the point of having children, isn't it? Being able to live your life through them instead of you, having them be your motivation? That's the 'right' thing, I'm thinking - when you love someone more than you love yourself. That's what I think about my mum."

Cheryl rose to fame from being in the band Girls Aloud. She is rumored to become a judge alongside Simon Cowell in the American version of X Factor.
