Myleene Klass has vowed never to marry again but says her girls need a man around to "help them ride their bikes".
The TV presenter said her divorce from Graham Quinn in 2013 "rocked my whole existence" and that handing him control of her £11 million fortune was her "biggest mistake".
"I'll never let that happen again, so help me God," she added during an interview with the Daily Mail weekend magazine.
"F***! I'm never getting married again. Never."
She is adamant she will always be financially independent and insists she is a "working mum, not a silly pop star".
Klass, 37, also said her daughters, Ava, seven, and four-year-old Hero, need a man in their lives.
"I'm aware they need males influences - someone to help them ride their bikes and all that," she added.
Klass is turning her attention to the kitchen in her latest project, hosting ITV cooking programme BBQ Champ.
