DATING HISTORY

Minogue and Jason Donovan met as teen-actors on the set of "Neighbours" in 1986. Two years later, they collaborated on the hit song "Especially For You" and were doing well, until Donovan became envious of Minogue's success and their relationship came to an end.

She dated the late Michael Hutchence for two years, then James Gooding for three years before their split in 2001 and the model confessed he cheated on her. The pop-star dated the French actor Olivier Martinez for five years before they separated in 2007.

In 2008, she dated the model, Andres Velencoso for five years and two years later, the singer met her ex-fiancé, Joshua Sasse. The pair called off their engagement which lasted less than two years and their split caused Minogue's nervous breakdown.

At 36, Minogue was diagnosed with breast cancer and the disease changed her perspective on life including having children.

PAUL SOLOMONS

Minogue met her current boyfriend, Paul Solomons in 2018 through mutual friends and they soon developed a close friendship which turned romantic. A few months later, the "Spinning Around" singer confirmed their relationship with a PDA-picture of the pair on Instagram.

Two years later, the 52-year-old shared a romantic picture of the couple on Instagram in honor of Solomons' birthday. The shot captured the GQ executive and the singer posing together in the sunset.

Minogue confessed that she was grateful for her relationship with Solomons as she never believed she would experience romance at her age. Six months after confirming their relationship on Instagram in 2018, the popstar disclosed how happy she was for the opportunity to share her success with Solomons.

The GQ creative director and the singer were taking things slow and learning about themselves while enjoying their time together. Unlike her previous public relationships, Minogue kept things private.

WHY SHE CAN'T HAVE CHILDREN

At 36, Minogue was diagnosed with breast cancer and the disease changed her perspective on life including having children. Her battle with cancer may have stopped her from having kids but the pop-star didn't dwell on the negative and focused on healing.

The 52-year-old stated that if she held on to regret, she would never heal. This is why she was able to reach new heights and have a wonderful relationship with Solomons, who she has described as her source of happiness.
