Lana Del Rey shares her thoughts on a day of starting a family.
The “Say Yes to Heaven” singer, 38, said she has “more to explore” in her life as she discussed whether or not she plans to have children in a new interview.
“That’s why God hasn’t given me kids yet,” Del Rey said The Sunday Times. “Because there is more to explore. I know people who have tested every water. It burned them, like Icarus. But I’m willing to go there.”
The musician added that she eventually sees becoming a mom, noting: “I can see it coming. We’ll see. We’ll see what melts the wings.”

Del Rey’s comments about motherhood came after she confirmed she was single in an interview with Harper’s BAZAAR last month.
The singer — who released a cover of John Denver’s 1971 classic “Take Me Home, Country Roads” on Friday — shared with the publication that she broke up with a recent boyfriend after he “didn’t get” her house.
“I feel like even the coolest guy doesn’t really want to hang out here,” Del Rey said. “Unfortunately, part of you knows… that’s not it. … That one shocked me. I won’t mention names or anything, but it really shocked me, that person. It was actually the end of a relationship.”

The singer also addressed the negative impact of fame on her mental health.
“You really have to take care of yourself, because giving your faith to the public is like building your house on sand. It’s going to spin and spin,” Del Rey explained. “I’ve experienced it in all parts of my life.”
She added: “People reveal sides of themselves years after you meet, so you have to be down to your knees.”
