Nadine Coyle: I regret turning my back on Jesse Metcalfe

Girls Aloud singer says she was too young to deal with the Desperate Housewives star's problems

Nadine Coyle dated Jesse Metcalfe on and off for 18 months

Nadine Coyle has revealed that she feels guilty for not being more supportive of ex-boyfriend Jesse Metcalfe when they were together.

The Girls Aloud singer broke up with the actor, 28, last year because she felt too young to deal with his problems.

‘He had a horrible time going to rehab and it was all too much for me,’ she says.

‘I blocked it out of my life and decided not to be a part of it and that’s wrong. That’s not something you should do if you love somebody.

'I regretted being so selfish about it and so dismissive of him genuinely having a problem.’

But Nadine, 23, says she has fond memories of their time together and is in no rush to find someone else.

‘I don't feel the need for another relationship,' she says. 'My life is fulfilled as it is and I have loads of male friends so I'm never stuck for male company.’
