A woman is becoming a single mum by choice at 41 - and refuses to "compromise" on a man just so she isn't alone.

Natalie Lovejoy has always wanted to be a parent and had expected she would meet a partner and start a family.

But after not meeting 'the one' she decided to go it alone so she didn't "miss out".

She booked a 'fertility MOT' in January this year and her levels came back normal for her age.
