Janet Jackson has spoken about her desire to have children.

The singer is dating music producer Jermaine Dupri and has announced that she finally feels ready to settle down.

"I would love to have kids," she said at a press conference. "I never thought I would ever want any. But being with Jermaine really changed my mind on all that. I don't mind adopting.

"I always wanted to find love. Now that I found love, I'm in a different space. Jermaine is drama-free. He's a very giving person. The challenges have been all joy working with Jermaine."
