The Oscar-nominated actress and “Rise Up” singer plays a mother of three in the new Netflix film “The First to Die.”
Singer and actress Andra Day tells PEOPLE she’s “at peace” with being single — but she hopes to settle down and start a family one day.
“I’m not seeing anyone at the moment,” she says. “I came out of something I wasn’t supposed to be in, so I’m creating this space for myself. That feels good to me.”
“Someday I want to be in love. I want to be married and have a family and all that, but I also want a little girl. I think she’s just going to be so sweet,” says Day, 39.
The star of the new Netflix film The Redemption isn’t afraid to start a family on her own, however. Day – who previously spoke to PEOPLE about the possibility of freezing her eggs – is still considering trying it on her own.
