Her siblings had long since fled the nest by the time her father passed away in the 1990s.
Susan stayed at home and took care of her mother, who was getting on in years, until her death in 2007.
“Some people seem surprised that I choose to stay in my family home. Why shouldn’t I? I feel Mum is still here and there are so many good memories… I’ve spent most of my life in this house and I won’t move now, because I feel it’s part of my new history,” she said.
Susan has never been coy about her desire to discover true love and settle down with one person. Since Susan has no plans to leave, that individual will naturally take up residence there.
While SuBo waits anxiously to meet “Mr. Right,” she has been preoccupied with something else. Susan has always envisioned herself as a mother with a family of her own.
”I’ve never had any of my own, that’s my biggest regret, but I love kids. They’re good fun to be with,” she told The Sun.
As a woman in her 60s, time is not on her side. However, Susan has recently discussed the possibility of becoming a foster parent or adopting a child.
I’ve a lovely house, why not share it?” she said.
