Christina Milian is a woman on the rebound on several fronts. Not only does she have to bounce back from an unhappy ending to her marriage with The-Dream, but she also has to find a way to come back from a less than successful previous effort as a recording artist. The beautiful singer took a first step on the road recovery as the February cover girl for Latina magazine. In the feature, she covered a litany of topics ranging from her failed marriage to her new role as a mother. Check out some of the highlights and the video feature below. –djr
On the end of her marriage to The-Dream …
No matter what, you can’t change who you are. I know that now. I tried to be someone I wasn’t because I wanted my marriage to work. But ultimately, if it’s not working, it’s not working.
On the cheating scandal …
I didn’t know anything. But looking back, my gut was telling me something was off. But I thought I could fix it.
On lessons learned …
I learned a lot about myself this year. I learned what I can handle. I learned how much I can take. I learned who I am and what I will accept for myself and my daughter.
On becoming a mom …
Being a new mother definitely makes me feel so much sexier than ever before. There’s a certain responsibility that I carry being a mom that makes me feel very confident and so blessed. Being a mom is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
On what’s next …
I feel brand new. I’ve been to hell and back, but I survived. I’m stronger for it and now I’m ready for the next phase of my life.
