Ricky Martin 'happy' as single dad

Ricky Martin has revealed that he is happy being a single dad to his twin boys.

The singer, whose sons Valentino and Matteo were born to a surrogate mother, said he loves changing nappies, feeding and bathing the babies on his own.

"I'm so happy. Everything they do, from smiling to crying, feels like a blessing. Being a father feels amazing. This has been the most spiritual moment in my life," he told People.

"I'm the one who changes the diapers, the one that feeds them, the one that bathes them, the one that puts them to sleep."

Martin, who said using a surrogate was "an intriguing and faster option", announced the birth of the babies in August.
