The star is mum to Archie, five, and Harry, four, and two-year-old George with ex-husband Jamie O’ Hara, whom she divorced in 2014.

Now happily moving on, she opens up about her new relationship with her 29-year-old boyfriend.

She tells the magazine: ‘He has bonded with my boys, and he and George are best friends. 

'In the middle of the night, they used to shout for Mummy, but now they shout for Michael!’ 

She adds: ‘Archie always says: ‘Michael, Mummy loves you!’ The pair began dating six months ago, with Michael moving into her home after just three. 

When asked if she would say ‘yes’ if Michael was to propose, Danielle giggles: ‘Yes.’ She admits: ‘I’d love to get engaged again and be happily married – I’d do it right this time.’ 

‘I’d love to have children with him and Michael would like that, too,’ she continues. 

The comments will certainly fuel rumours of an engagement.

Not least because, in just four months of dating, the couple have already been abroad together three times.

They enjoyed their first break together in Paris in late September, followed by a week in Dubai and Abu Dhabi for the Grand Prix at the end of November.

Of course, Danielle is a regular visitor to Dubai and flew there several times in the spring and summer during her four-month long-distance romance with UAE-based property developer Tom Jimson. 

Not that she only discussed herself in the weekly glossy, of course - she also opened-up about the health and well-being of her offspring.

In particular, she discussed middle son Harry’s health after he was born ten weeks prematurely.

She admits: ‘I knew from when he was little that something wasn’t quite right – it was mother’s instinct. Now he’s being tested for autism.’

The devoted mother explains: ‘He’s very much a loner, and likes to be by himself rather than with the other two. He also struggles with things like getting himself dressed and playing games.’
