Who are Alesha Dixon's kids?

Alesha and Azuka share two daughters together, Azura was born in 2013 and Anaya in 2019.

The TV legend has opened up about her parenting style to Women’s Health UK magazine, saying that she is trying to keep her girls away from mobile phones for as long as possible.

Alesha said: "As long as we can avoid our daughters having phones, we’re going try our hardest."

"[Azura, 11] can be begging me for a mobile phone, and I feel no way to be like 'nope’ because I've got one. [But] you've got to be strong with it. My thing is this, 'If she doesn't need a phone then why is she having one?'

"If I can delay her being in that world, I'm going to work super hard to make sure that it doesn't happen. I don't care if her friends have got phones. In our house, we don't want that."
