Fatherhood has made Blue 'grow up'The boyband - who are making a comeback representing the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest after mainly concentrating on their solo careers for the past few years - say they are different to who they were when they were last in the spotlight together because of their children.
Antony Costa, who has a seven-year-old daughter, Emilie Olivia, said: "[Having children] has made us grow up.'
Duncan James, father to Tianie-Finn, six, added: 't's such a big influence in your life, having a child. Your outlook changes. Simon [Webbe]'s daughter knows what's going on, but the rest of them don't know who Blue is.'
Simon, who has his daughter Alanah, 13, from a past relationship with Nicola Jones, recently split up with his long-term girlfriend Layla Manoochehri and says he finds having a love-life hard because the band have to dedicate their lives to their careers.
He explained to Star magazine: "We're married to the job. I've always been married to it. But having someone to share that with would be nice.'
However, he agreed with his band mates that being a father has shaped him more than anything else.
He added: "My focus is my child.'
Blue - whose fourth member is Lee Ryan, who has a two-year-old son Rayn - will be performing 'I Can' in the Eurovision Song Contest in Dusseldorf on May 14.
