James Blunt hints at quitting music career

James Blunt has hinted that he’s no longer interested in pursuing his music career.

The 38-year-old, best-known for his 2005 number one single, ‘You’re Beautiful,’ told the Daily Mail that he now wants to settle down and enjoy the rewards of his success:

"I just want to take some time out for myself. I haven’t got any plans to do more songwriting. I have been chilling out since I finished my world tour and I’ve spent a lot of time in Ibiza, where I have a villa."

The former army officer, who was speaking at the relaunch of London nightclub Barbarella, added that his recent first summer off in seven years with girlfriend Sofia Wellesley inspired his decision:

"Sofia and I had a great time hanging out with friends on my yacht but we partied as well. I do like a good night out and that is why it’s great fun to hang out at Barbarella.”
