Myleene Klass Shows Off Legs in Mini-Shorts After Defending Her Kids Against ‘Nepo Baby’ Claims

Myleene Klass put on a leggy display in a pair of mini-shorts as she left Smooth radio in London.

The musician and presenter, 47, who hosts a three-hour radio show at the station, stepped out into the London sunshine on Sunday.

She looked effortlessly chic as she left the studio, wearing a fitted brown suede blazer over a white lace blouse. 

Myleene displayed her toned legs as she completed the ensemble with a pair of dark brown tailored mini-shorts. 

She finished off the look with tan suede stilettos, accessorising with a beige Chanel flap bag with a leopard print scarf tied to it and wide sunglasses.  

It comes after Myleene passionately defended her children from ‘nepo baby ‘ accusations, insisting her two teenage daughters earn their success.

Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Myleene said their talents are born from hard work and believed Ava, 18, and Hero, 14, will never have to live off her name because ‘they will always make money’ – crediting herself for giving them the ‘tools’ to do so.

And the former Hear’Say singer, who is also a mother to son Apollo, six, with fiancé Simon Motson, has already encouraged them to work and made them aware they will not receive any handouts from her.

Last month, Ava received impressive A-Level results, ‘four points off perfection’ in her English exams, according to Myleene, who claimed her daughter’s old school will be ‘using her English paper as a teaching facility.’

And Myleene uses her daughters’ intelligence – and their musical prowess – to swipe away that dreaded ‘nepo baby’ tag as she insisted ‘you can’t catch talent.’

The star said: ‘She’s done the piano for eight hours a day, she went to the Royal Academy of Music, she had to audition, they didn’t just say “Myleene Klass’s daughter is showing up, give her a place”, she had to audition, and that’s the point.

‘You could call my children nepo babies all day long but they can play Rachmaninoff concertos like the best of them.

‘To what end are you going to decide that that’s a nepo baby when they have worked and been on the grind for their own money and their own talent.

‘Both of my daughters work at the weekends and some people have said ‘you’ve put them to work early’ but I’m a working mother, I want them to know the value of earning your own money and feel that gratification, I earned this and I’m going to decide when to spend it.

‘I know they will be okay in life because they will always be able to make money, they have those tools and that was my job to make them have that but I can’t play the piano for them.’

The Classic FM presenter said she brought up Ava and Hero very much as a ‘single mum’ following her split from their father, bodyguard Graham Quinn in 2013.

Myleene made headlines in July by claiming their breakup was because she caught Graham cheating on her with another, unnamed celebrity, which sent social media into a frenzy with fans trying to work out the guilty party.

Several female celebrities have been accused of being the culprit after Myleene teased that they are someone with a ‘family brand.’

Speaking on Paul Brunson’s podcast, Myleene said: ‘I walked in on him with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony.

‘I have made peace with that situation now but for a long time it was very difficult to see their life, not that I would wish that on a family, I don’t know I feel conflicted but my life literally broke apart very, very publicly and their life they have continued to build a family brand on it.’

And with the bodyguard being out of the picture while Ava and Hero were growing up, Myleene was keen to become a role model for her daughters.

She said she believes her work ethic has rubbed off on them as they’ve seen her in action and even nicknamed her ‘shark’ because her ambitions have no limits. 

Myleene explained: ‘My daughter Ava did make me laugh, she said I’m like a shark, ferocious, go for what I want, out there, and she said no, if you stop moving, I think you’d die.

‘I liked that because she can see that I don’t just sit there and wait for things to come to me. I am a really impatient person, I’m pretty frenetic, I know how lucky I am that I have these opportunities and I want to grab them all.

‘My children have come from a grafter and a self-made woman from Norfolk, a mixed race girl who paid into herself and I invested in my own lessons and in my own books, just trying to enlighten myself and get that foothold, there’s no excuse for my children, they have seen it and know it can be done.

‘I love the words of Cher – “Mom I am a rich man” – build it for yourself, don’t wait for someone to hand it to you.’

The former I’m A Celeb star, who famously capitalised on the moment she wore a white bikini while showering in the Australian jungle, continued: ‘It’s 10 per cent what you say and 90 per cent what you do, they can see I’m a grafter and so I can’t say, you go out and graft if I’m not doing the same.

‘In the same way I lose the power when they want to wear certain items and they throw it back at me and say, well I’ve Googled and I’ve seen you wear it. I tell them, if you want something, you go and work for it because that’s what I’ve done.

‘I want them to have that gratification and that pride in themselves, you can give too much.

‘My children already know that they’re not going to get massive handouts but they are going to get opportunities. I will get them in the room, no problem.

‘Like I said, you can call my children nepo babies and I’m sure people will but it is literally water off a duck’s back because my daughter was at the Royal Academy of Music and now has top grades, she has proved that she’s more than a nepo baby and my other daughter is about to do grade eight and you don’t do grade eight until you’re around 16/17 and she’s only 14. They are proving the world wrong and our supporters right.’
