Dita Von Teese "never found the right moment" to start a family. The 51-year-old burlesque star has admitted she let the time to have children pass her by because she was so busy focusing on her career and now worries she may end up regretting the decision later in life. Dita told The Times newspaper: "I was doing something no one had been famous for since Gypsy Rose Lee, so I thought, I’ve just got to keep rolling with the punches.
I never thought, oh now’s the right moment for a time out." The star revealed she turned to fellow performer Mamie Van Doren, 93, for advice: "Mamie has a son she loves, but she was, like, ‘Don’t get caught up in [motherhood] being required of you'. Maybe one day I’m going to say I made a huge mistake not having children, but I don’t know.
" Dita has been dating graphic designer Adam Rajcevich for the last 10 years, but she's adamant she won't be walking down the aisle again following her failed marriage to rocker Marilyn Manson, which ended in divorce in 2007. She added: "I’ve never been extraordinarily lucky in love. I’m notoriously not the blueprint for long-term, healthy relationships.
And I remember at my wedding thinking, this is all a show. "I understand why people want to have their day and wear the beautiful dress - but I feel like I get to do that every night on stage." Dita previously confessed she believed getting married ruined her relationship with Manson - admitting they felt as if they had to go ahead with it because.
