Singer Ellie Goulding says she is happy being single as not having a boyfriend has taught her to focus on herself.
"I am so single now - I am single and I am loving it," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Goulding as saying.
The 26-year-old has earlier dated DJ Greg James and she was also romantically linked to Ed Sheeran and One Direction band member Niall Horan.
"I can't imagine being in that place now. Being alone I've realised a lot of things about myself and who I am. In the last six months I've completely changed - being single has taught me that I have to focus on myself," Goulding added.
She says people around her help her in being down-to-earth.
"But I have a team of people around me who would slap me down the second I turned into a k**b or started acting like a diva," she added.
