The 38-year-old said, ''he's very chilled, calm and has a sense of humour. He tries to make you laugh. And he's already singing. Not anything in particular, but he’s using his voice to sing."
She continued, ''when you have your first child, your heart expands from zero to 100 and you feel elated.''
"You don’t get that stretch of the heart the second time around, but I didn't need it – I already knew how to love him in exactly the same way."
Katherine is releasing her nw album, Guiding Light, on 30th of November and it seems that Xander provided some inspiration for it.
She has revealed that she has penned a "lullaby prayer" for her little boy which will feature on it.
It is the most intimate album she has ever made, she says, adding, "I’m sure it's to do with my personal life and feeling rooted and grounded, but I wanted to make an album which is more reflective, emotional and spiritual, and not feeling the need to go: 'Look at the things I can sing.''
And what about when it comes ot her own little ones - will they follow in her musical footsteps?
She says, ''my mum was the breadwinner of the family and gave us a real work ethic. And I want my children to see that I’m dedicated and passionate about what I do. If I can share that with them, I hope it will be helpful in some way."
