Musician and TV star Myleene Klass has shared an emotional statement about being a single mum as she celebrated her daughter Ava graduating high school.

Myleene, 47, became a single mum after her split from ex-husband Graham Quinn back in 2013. The pair, who were married for two years, shared daughters Ava, 17, and Hero, 13, together. The Loose Women star is also mum to son Apollo from her current relationship with fiancé Simon Motson. Meanwhile, Simon also has two children from a previous relationship.

Taking to her Instagram page to share her daughter's academic milestone, the former Hear'Say singer posed alongside her lookalike daughter as they were dressed up to celebrate the occasion

ITV star Myleene also shared several other pictures of her daughter, including clips from her graduation and a photo of her when she was younger.

Captioning the post, Myleene wrote: "My daughter Ava has finally graduated high school.

"I haven’t cried so much in ages. It’s because I know our journey. And because of this, I wanted to acknowledge today in particular, the single Mamas (I know there are single dads but I can only speak from my own experience)."

She added: "Like you, there were days bringing up Ava (and Hero) where it felt the world was fighting against us and I was very much on my own. We have an amazing community around us but as a single mum when they were so young, the fear, the loneliness, the decision making, the mental load before everything else is considered, can really overwhelm.

"There were people who wanted to see me fail and to them as well as the majority who wanted to see us win, thank you for spurring me on."

Adding to her statement, she said: "Today is recognition of what we have achieved, I had no intention of failing my children. Ava, I have single handedly grafted so that you might have the best I could give you and you have in turn risen up and grabbed everything with gusto, determination and resilience. You are fiesty, fearless and stronger than I could have ever imagined yet soft, loving and kind in equal measure.

"In the days I wondered where I would get the strength, it came from my girls. When they worry about me and how much I take on, I remind them, I’m forged from the fire. Single Mamas, I see you and so do our babies. Well done, keep on keeping on x."

Concluding, Myleene said: "And to my eldest daughter, my Ava bear, my day one, my forever love, thank you for choosing me to be your Mama.

"You are talented, smart, intuitive and an exceptional human being. My sun rises and sets with you. Go out and see the world on your terms baby girl. Just remember to come home every once in a while to tell Mama all about it. X. Klass of 2025, Dismissed."

Fans were loving the post, as it racked up more than 16,000 likes, including a like from her Loose Women pal Christine Lampard.

Other celebrity pals also took to the comments section to show their support, as Britain's Got Talent star Amanda Holden wrote: "Oh darling. This made me cry."

TV star Lisa Snowdon also posted crying and love heart emojis and Little Mix star Perrie Edwards wrote: "Congratulations beautiful talented Ava!"

Fans also praised Myleene, as one exclaimed: "Myleene you are a powerhouse of woman and one amazing mama never forget that."

The post comes after Myleene recently spoke about younger daughter Hero's terrifying health ordeal after she 'turned blue'.

She opened up on the We're Not Getting Any Younger podcast about the chilling moment involving Hero, who turned blue and collapsed from choking.
