After the loss of her parents and the crushing weight of instant fame following Britain’s Got Talent, Susan has battled intense pressure and heartbreak. Yet through it all, she has shown extraordinary resilience, continuing to chase her dreams and lift audiences with her voice. Her life may seem like a fairy tale, but the road has been anything but smooth.

Dive into Susan’s remarkable and emotional journey—watch the full story unfold below!

“When I was young, I was often bullied. They used to tease me about my messy hair. At school, I always felt lonely and sad, no one wanted to sit near me,” the angelic voice of Susan Boyle recalls about her childhood.

Compared to her first appearance during the audition round of Britain’s Got Talent, the current Susan Boyle looks charming and polished. Susan Boyle said, “I got tired of being called the ‘messy-haired angel.’ I didn’t know what I looked like until I saw my performance on TV. I decided to make a change. Now, when I look in the mirror, I see an elegant and refined woman.”

It’s still remembered that after the Britain’s Got Talent final, Susan Boyle had to be hospitalized for psychological treatment because of the immense pressure she had endured throughout the competition. Susan Boyle admitted that her life was “completely turned upside down” after joining the singing competition and facing the pressure of fame. Reflecting on her time at the Priory psychological treatment center, Susan said, “This will be the last time I talk about the Priory… At that time, I was very tired and exhausted. My life was no longer normal when Britain’s Got Talent aired. There were so many people standing outside my door, many taking photos, filming, and even people wanting to touch me. At that moment, I thought, ‘Oh my God, what’s going on? I’m just an ordinary singer, I didn’t expect this.’”

Susan recalls that there were times when she didn’t dare to leave her room because of the media pressure. “They were banging on my door loudly. I didn’t have bodyguards, just me and a team of Britain’s Got Talent producers. I was terrified, I felt helpless. Every day there were dozens of phone calls. I stayed up all night for three weeks before I decided to change my number. I don’t know if anyone else who participated in the competition went through this. I couldn’t control anything anymore. It was like a bulldozer was ready to crush me,” Susan shared.

Susan Boyle also spoke about her family. She is the youngest daughter in a family of nine siblings from Blackburn, Scotland. Susan reminisced about her childhood: “When I was little, I was often bullied. They would tease me about my messy hair. At school, I was very lonely and sad. No one wanted to sit next to me in class. My friends were just dolls. I gave them names. As I grew older, I transitioned from dolls to music. Music truly became my escape.”

Susan Boyle shared that when she was a little older, she dated a man named John, who worked in an office. “He proposed to me after we had been dating for 7 weeks,” Susan said. During her time on Britain’s Got Talent, Susan Boyle revealed that she had never kissed anyone and had never had a serious relationship with a man.

Susan Boyle also shared that she referred to the judge Piers Morgan as “Piersy Baby,” not by his real name. Throughout the competition, Piers was very encouraging to Susan, and she developed a lot of affection for this kind-hearted judge. When asked about her feelings for Piers, Susan Boyle laughed and said, “You have to admit, Piers is very handsome.”

Susan Boyle confided that two other major shocks in her life were the deaths of her father and mother: “I felt immense pain watching the ones I loved leave me.” The Britain’s Got Talent angelic voice contestant shared that her life now is much easier. She is also happy that her debut album I Dreamed a Dream is about to be released on November 23, and it has received positive feedback. This album is currently selling better than the album marking the return of the legendary diva Whitney Houston.

The 47-year-old woman, who still feels youthful, believes her life is like a fairy tale about Cinderella. And she firmly believes that, just like any other fairy tale, there will certainly be a happy ending.
