Kylie Minogue is ready to be a mom

The 47-year-old singer - who has previously admitted she is unsure whether she can have kids because of treatment she underwent for breast cancer - got engaged to the 28-year-old hunk in February after six months of dating and they are now keen to start a family as soon as they can.

A source said: "They want to start a family more than anything - Joshua would love a sibling for his son [two-year-old Sebastian].

"Kylie never thought it was possible but they've been having that conversation and Joshua has been giving her the confidence she needed to believe they could be parents together.

"And they don't necessarily want to wait until the wedding - they have spoken about looking into various options as soon as possible."

And when it comes to tying the knot, the couple have very different ideas of what they want for their big day, though it seems likely the 'All the Lovers' hitmaker will get her dream wedding.

The source told heat magazine: "Kylie has promised all her friends and family a big bash in Sydney, but Joshua wants something totally different.

"He's even suggested a spiritual ceremony in Nepal, where he spent much of his childhood.

"However, he's also told his friends that Kylie is probably going to get her way."

Kylie has previously admitted having children with Joshua would be "incredible".

She said: "I have a love in my life, which is a beautiful thing. I'm on cloud nine most of the time because of Mr Joshua Sasse, my beau. I want to go a bit slower and look at the view.

"I want more out life. Who knows if family is one of my horizons. But if that were to happen that would be incredible. I don't want to get stuck on the treadmill of doing the same thing. I'd like to experience other things in life, which means I have to adapt."
