Selena Gomez is ready to back her bags and say goodbye to Hollywood fame.
The singer/actress talked about her future hopes by saying, “I want to get married and become a mom. I’m ready to step away from acting to pursue my personal life now.”
Gomez revealed her future wishes on Friday’s episode of the TaTaTu video podcast ‘Giving Back generation’.
“I hope to be married and to be a mom,” the 30-year-old told hosts Raquelle Stevens and Ashley Cook, who also happen to be her longtime friends. “Eventually, I’m going to be tired of all of this, so I’m probably just going to devote most of my life to philanthropy before I peace out.”
Gomez went on to reveal how watching her 8-year-old half-sister Gracie Teefey grow made her confident she wants to be a parent.
“She puts things in perspective,” Gomez said of her sister. “I have to basically watch this little person grow into a human being. There’s no better feeling in the world. I kind of feel like a parent in a way, even though I’m not.”
“It’s so rewarding to just see that life was so simple at one point,” she added. “I want to enjoy life the way she enjoys life.”
This isn’t the first time Gomez has talked about settling down and starting a family of her own.
During an Interview back in June, Gomez said, “I would like to have four kids, for sure. Maybe not planned, maybe planned, maybe both. And there would be nothing wrong with the life I would have led. My move to Texas to Hollywood made me put having kids on the back burner.”
Gomez added, ” I now know that was not my path and I’m really grateful I had a mom give me the opportunity to chase my dreams.”
Though Gomez has claimed to be single, she has been spotted recently getting flirty with Italian movie producer Andrea Iervolino, while yachting in Positano, Italy on Wednesday.
