She told Jamie Laing's Great Company podcast: “My mum’s always telling me I need to train to be a teacher.
“She’s like, ‘You’ve had kids, you’ve done the pop star thing. Go and do PGCE [teacher training] because then you can have the same holidays as your kids’. I’m considering it. I just might put one more record out.”
Given the state of some schools right now, I’d stick to the music.
During the chat this week, Paloma also opened up about the stress of releasing new albums and said she isn’t scared of being let go by her label.

She said: “Every time I get towards putting an album out, I think, ‘This is the end’.
“But now everyone’s independent, so it’s quite cool if you get dropped.”

The EastEnders star lifted the lift on last year’s wild post-match celebrations and insisted that away from the pitch, it’s a party like no other
Speaking on TalkSport, Danny said: “It was amazing – Tommy Fury was sucking on a bottle of Disaronno and Mo Farah was on the karaoke and Usain Bolt was at the bar. Interestingly it’s Robbie Keane who keeps everyone up all night, then he comes on the next day and wins the game.”

'I'm bitter' says Paloma Faith as she takes cheeky swipe at Adele on The Great Celebrity Bake Off
While Timothee is playing the folk music legend, Elle plays Sylvie Russo – a thinly veiled version of late artist Suze Rotolo, who dated Bob when they were teens.
Suze inspired a number of Bob’s songs including Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right and her impact on the star’s music will be shown for the first time in the new film.
The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan is his second studio album released in 1963 and the cover features Dylan with Suze.
Elle previously teamed up with Timothee on Woody Allen's 2019 film A Rainy Day In New York where they spent weeks filming in the Big Apple.
I’m sure this time around they hit up a couple of bars to celebrate once the cameras had stopped rolling.
