Myleene has been sharing lots of moments from lockdown on her Instagram stories in recent weeks. 

She has been teaching the nation music lessons from her home with children Ava, 12, Hero, eight and baby Apollo, 10 months.

The TV and radio star, who was born in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, to an Austrian father and a Filipino mother, revealed she is struggling to explain racism to her children amid the Black Lives Matter movement following the murder of unarmed black man George Floyd.

Floyd died last month after a white police officer knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes in Minneapolis, prompting a wave of protests. 

In her impassioned post, the mother-of-three listed some of the horrendous slurs she has faced over the years, with a shocking list reading: ‘Chink. Slit eye. Number 69, Fried rice. Mongrel. Ping pong. Slut. All Tai girls are sluts. Banana’.
