KYLIE Minogue had a "nervous breakdown" after her split from her former fiancé Joshua Sasse.

The Australian singer, 49, has spoken of how she needed to get away from the situation for a short time by travelling to Thailand for six days to spend time with her girlfriends, following their split last February.

She told The Sunday Times: "I just wanted to stop.

“I knew I needed to heal my… My physical system was compromised. I think it’s called a nervous breakdown.”

Although she was heartbroken by the spit, Kylie is positive about the future.

She admitted: “I went through all the motions of ‘This is what people do.'

“And it wasn’t the right union. I’ve never been that woman, that girl who dreams of walking down the aisle.

"You dust yourself off and you go through that period of ‘Never again. Not going to do it.’”

Kylie looked back to her best last night as she attended a pre-Bafta dinner at Mark's Club in Mayfair.

The pint-sized pop star looked chic in a print dress and metallic heels, and she wore a big smile on her face.

Earlier this month we reported that Joshua had been dumped by his girlfriend - just days before their secret wedding.

The actor, 30, was due to marry Harriet Colling, 29, at St Lawrence's Church in his hometown of Ludlow after a whirlwind romance.

However, The Sun Online revealed Harriet, who works as an actress, pulled the plug on the low key ceremony just days before the nuptials.

A source said: "Harriet decided she couldn't go through with marrying Joshua - they weren't right for each other.

"They started dating shortly after his split with Kylie and at first they were smitten. But he changed over time and she felt he was isolating her from her family.

"Her family and friends are over the moon - no one liked Joshua. They think she can do much better than him.
