She’s 26!
Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Bedingfield recorded rock and gospel songs for the Hillsong London Church.

She recorded her first album Unwritten in 2004. The album contained primarily uptempo pop songs and was influenced by R&B music, it enjoyed international success with over 2.5 million sold worldwide. In 2007, she received a Grammy Award nomination for “Best Female Pop Vocal Performance” for “Unwritten”. Bedingfield’s second album N.B. (2007) yielded the singles “I Wanna Have Your Babies”, “Soulmate” and “Say It Again”. Bedingfield has achieved 5 top ten singles in the United Kingdom to date and as of November 2007, she has sold over 6.7 million records worldwide.
Bedingfield has promoted humanitarian causes throughout the world, and is noted for her work with children in the “Stop the Traffik” campaign through her mother’s charity, Global Angels.
Bedingfield was born in the Lewisham district of London to New Zealand-born Molly and John Bedingfield who are both charity workers. She has two siblings; an older brother Daniel and a younger sister Nikola, who are both pop singers.
Her interest in music was encouraged by her parents and growing up she took guitar and piano lessons. As a teenager, Bedingfield and her siblings, Daniel and Nikola, formed the dance/electronic group, The DNA Algorithm. The group provided Bedingfield with the opportunity to explore different musical genres and expand her songwriting abilities. She provided vocals for the group which primarily performed dance-pop music about religion, independence and empowerment, themes that would later be found in her own solo compositions. The DNA Algorithm performed at several Christian music festivals before disbanding.
Bedingfield has stated on TRL that her U.S. version of her second album will be Pocket Full of Sunshine which will feature some songs from N.B. alongside new songs. The lead single of this album is called “Love Like This” which is featuring Sean Kingston. She said on TRL it will be released sometime in January.
Personal Life:
Bedingfield is currently dating estate agent Matt Robinson, but will not discuss their relationship because it is something she would like to keep private.
Bedingfield is often characterized by her “girl next door” appearance. She does not want to mislead fans by presenting a false image of herself in photo shoots and music videos, and will only dress and act as she would in her private life. Bedingfield refuses to pose for men’s magazines, although she did appear in Arena Homme Plus because the magazine allowed her to wear “lovely dresses”.
