Dannii Minogue has spoken for the first time since splitting with partner Kris Smith.

The Aussie, who had baby Ethan with Smith, spoke to the Australian Marie Claire about her family life post-split.

Minogue was asked how she is coping with a 22-month-old son now that she doesn't have Smith around, to which she replied:

"How do I juggle everything now? Some days with ease, some days with difficulty. I have found that, over the years, whatever happens, you have to roll with it. I try to take it all in my stride, but when it affects my loved ones I feel an internal struggle with the love for my work."

She also said: "Fame and work have always had an impact on my family since I went into this business at seven years of age. It's all I know."
