Australian singer Sia has recently revealed that she knew she had to adopt her son from the moment she first saw him on television.
In the October cover story for Vogue Australia, the musician, 44, opened up about her decision to adopt two 18-year-old boys last year, sharing that the idea came about after she was watching a documentary.
“I am obsessed with reality television and documentaries, and I watched a documentary and saw my son,” she said.
The “Together” singer explained that she felt an instant connection to the teenage boy after realizing he didn’t have his own family. “I was like: ‘What? Like, he doesn’t have anybody. Oh my God. I’m going to find him and I’m going to be his mummy.’ And so that’s what I did,” she said.
The star ended up tracking down the boy and adopted him and his friend. Sia first confirmed that she welcomed two sons into her family last year during a May interview with SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up, sharing that she adopted the teenage boys when they were leaving foster care due to their age.
