The former Pussycat Dolls singer Ashley Robertshas been largely single for around three years, and though she has been on a few dates, she is only just ready to settle down. She said: “I’ve dated here and there, but now I finally feel ready to be in a committed relationship. I won’t go out searching for it, though.

“I’m focusing on myself and my career, but I’m confident that when the time is right, the right guy will come in.” Ashley thinks British men have “sexy” accents and she is particularly keen to find someone with a sense of humour to match hers. She added in an interview with Britain’s Hello! magazine: “I love the British accent. It’s so sexy.

“I don’t mind what industry my next boyfriend is involved in – love knows no boundaries. But he’d need to be confident, not cocky – there is a difference. “I’m a bit of a goofball – I enjoyed joking around and being silly – so a man who can make me laugh is a serious contender. I’m attracted to men who have a zest for life and what they do.” – Femalefirst
