Susan Boyle has had a busy career, particularly ever since her sudden rise to fame in 2009 thanks to her debut on "Britain's Got Talent." Due to the incessant press coverage, it's understandable why Boyle wanted to keep her personal life just that: personal. Because of this, little is known about any family plans, though she previously revealed to Lady Magazine, "If I had a man friend it would be purely platonic — I've been on my own too long now to get married" (via the Mirror).

However, her attitude about having children is quite different from her thoughts on marriage. Currently in her 60s, Susan Boyle doesn't plan on having any children of her own, and this is reportedly one of her biggest regrets. In a 2019 interview with The Sun, she said, "I've never had any of my own, that's my biggest regret, but I love kids." However, she also opened the possibility of fostering and/or adopting children one day, saying at the time, "I'm 58 so I've got something to bring my family home to. I've a lovely house, why not share it?" 

And, aside from her lovely house, the children would also certainly have an all-around lovely person who would share her life with them.
