The vocalist of Shout!, who has recently declared that she will no longer be involved in making music and going on tours, has been married twice and both marriages gained considerable attention from the public eye.

In 1969, Lulu got hitched to Maurice Gibb, who was quite famous as part of the Bee Gees band. However, their marriage ended in divorce in 1963. Lulu then found love again and tied the knot with John Frieda in 1977.

Frieda and Lulu were married for a total of 14 years until their marriage came to an end in 1991. Their son's name is Jordan and they both share the responsibility of raising him.

Lulu will be on TV this weekend on The Jonathan Ross Show on ITV and during her chat with the host, she talked about what it's like to have a relationship that is observed by the public.

The woman started off by considering her career that has spanned several decades. She informed Ross that she has been fortunate to have had a successful career but noted that there are both advantages and disadvantages to being in a career for such an extended period of time.

Lulu and Maurice Gibb were husband and wife for a duration of five years.

When I was still a teenager, I recall the start of my journey wherein I was tasked to deal with executives running record labels who wore formal wear. They would demand me to perform short and catchy pop songs but I would experience a lot of challenges and even feel emotional about it.

When I had the pleasure of meeting David Bowie, he shared with me his belief that record labels often struggle to understand and appreciate artists, including their unique sound. He also expressed his eagerness to collaborate with me and create a successful record together.

I felt recognized and acknowledged after hearing his words because dealing with experienced professionals can be challenging.

Ross asked Lulu about her connection with Bowie after reading her memoir from 2002 where she discussed the singer who passed away. Lulu tactfully avoided the question and responded with a humorous "No comment."

After avoiding giving a direct response, Lulu contemplated on her memoir and expressed: "I have gained a lot of knowledge and experience. I've faced challenges and overcome them. As I've aged, I now realize that I wasn't fully prepared to open up and expose my true self. However, this does not mean that I was being insincere or fake."

She went deeper into her story, saying "When I was a girl, I longed for love. It's the reason why I am doing what I do. Back then, I couldn't express it in words, but now I can. I just want to connect with others."

Lulu kept on talking about her romantic experiences and confessed that she is presently "extremely content" being single.

During her youth, she had a strong desire for a white picket fence and the ideal lifestyle. However, she now confesses that after two happy marriages with great men, she realized the importance of self-discovery.

Lulu has discussed her romantic relationships in the limelight.

Lulu encountered Gibb backstage at the Top of the Pops show in 1969. However, their love affair couldn't withstand the test of time. Lulu, who is now 75 years old, had earlier mentioned that Gibb's struggle with alcoholism played a role in their separation.

During her special appearance on Piers Morgan's Life Stories, Lulu expressed, "We felt like royalty, on top of the world and just amazing."

The alcohol consumption was certainly a factor, however, it would have been more appropriate if we had not gotten married at all and just had a romantic relationship instead.

I came to the conclusion that it was time to bring it to a close. Though it caused him pain, he wasn't ready to let go. Although I cared deeply for him, it's possible I was more infatuated with the idea of being in love than actually in love with him.
