Denise Van Outen has opened up about getting her freedom back at 52 now that her daughter Betsy is older after suffering from 'mum' guilt.
The DJ and television presenter, 52, welcomed her daughter in 2010 with her ex-husband, West End star and Any Dream Will Do winner Lee Mead.
The couple married in 2009 before later separating in 2013 due to gruelling work schedules, long-distance strain, and growing apart.
Despite 'brilliantly' co-parenting their daughter, Denise admitted that she had done a lot of the parenting on her own, which has been 'really challenging at times'.
But now that Betsy is 16, the star revealed a sense of newfound freedom as her daughter becomes more independent.
