Beth Ditto fears fame could ruin her love life.

The Gossip singer admits her relationship with Freddie - a transgendered individual who was born a female - is starting to suffer as they clash over her career plans.

She said: "We're still together. But you know, life is not the same any more, and it makes things really hard. Me and Freddie talk about this a lot. He says, 'You chose this life' and I'm like, 'Did I?' I feel like it chose me, like fate just swooped in and I've chosen not to say no.

But it's a debate - am I choosing this? And am I choosing it over him? Meanwhile, Freddie is a house cleaner, and that's my reality, the life I go home to

"This doesn't last forever. But it's a debate - am I choosing this? And am I choosing it over him? Meanwhile, Freddie is a house cleaner, and that's my reality, the life I go home to."

Despite her fame, the plus-sized singer is determined to stay grounded.

She added to Scotland on Sunday newspaper: "I plant my own flowers. I don't cut my own grass but that's because I'm never home. I'll never say that I'm not doing well. I'm not as rich as some people I know, but if you think about some of the people I know they're really f***ing rich!"
