MICHELLE BRIDGES:'I ALREADY HAVE A MAN IN MY LIFE'

How son Axel helped his mum heal

Star trainer Michelle Bridges has moved back to Sydney and is loving life as a single mum in the city.

"I'm really excited about the next chapter of moving back and being closer to my work and my friends and family and seeing what life brings next," Michelle tells Woman's Day.

LOVING LIFE

Michelle, 52, recently sold her property in the NSW Southern Highlands.

"Anybody out there who has been through any kind of break-up, particularly when kids are involved, knows it's very difficult. It's very private, it's very personal and it's very challenging. You really have to step up to be a co-parent," she says. "But I'm good. I'm so good. I own the remote control. I own the couch. I don't have to do anyone's washing. I do feel like I am ready for what this next chapter brings. I'm quite excited.

I'm in a really good place. I already have a man in my life!" That man is her seven-year-old son Axel, who was only too happy to join forces last week with his famously fit mum to help launch AusBike, a new learn-to-ride program designed to give kids aged five to 12 the foundational skills needed to build their confidence and competence.
