out growers
DRUG dealers have been
mocked for growing can -
nabis in their front room.
Officers posted a snap of

Myleene: I can’t recall five
hours of baby being born
said. “I love the night feeds – it’s a
privilege to look at his little face. I know
how quickly this will go.
“I’m loving every single minute. I even
miss my baby bump.”
Apollo is the first child for Myleene
and her partner Simon Motson, 45, a
fashion PR guru. Like her, he has two
children from his previous marriage.
Myleene’s ex-husband Graham
Quinn, father of her
two girls, walked out
on her just six months
after their wedding.
She later admitted
to turning to drink to
get through it.
After meeting Simon
she gushed: “I thank
my lucky stars.
“And the fact I could
have missed out on
having such an incred-
ible man in my life
would have been the
biggest travesty of all.”
Prior to Apollo’s arrival, she hinted
they may yet try to expand their family
further. She said: “I always wanted a big
family. Sim wants a big family. Nobody
will ever invite us anywhere ever again.”

PROUD new mother Myleene Klass
shows off her baby son Apollo as
she revealed that his birth was
fraught with difficulties.
The radio star, 41, said she “lost five
hours of her life” as she reflected on
what is different about being a mum in
your 40s compared with having children
when younger.
Myleene was 29 when
she gave birth to eldest
daughter Ava, now 12,
and 32 when her sister
Hero, eight, arrived.
Musician Myleene
told Hello! magazine
that after an easy begin-
ning her labour became
more “complicated”.
She said: “My waters
broke and I was in the
birthing pool. We had a
really easy first three
hours, I thought we would all be home
by 7pm. I don’t remember what
happened next.
“It was pretty complicated in the end.”
The former pop star has said she is
cherishing moments with young Apollo

• born on August 1 – because she
  knows how fleeting they can be.
  “Having a baby in your 40s is an
  extremely different experience,” she
