Rachel Stevens has said she is 'encouraging but not pushy' with her daughter, who has begun to follow in her famous footsteps.

The former S Club 7 singer, 44, is the mother of two daughters Minnie, eight, and 11-year-old Amelie, who is starring as young Cosette in Les Miserables in the West End.

Speaking to Hello! magazine, Rachel opened up about how she tries to advice her children based on her own experiences in the entertainment industry.

She said: 'Amelie really does lead this herself - I'm encouraging but not pushy, and from all the learning I've taken from my career, I try to give her the best advice I can and be there to answer her questions.'

She added that she has told both her daughters that someone might open the door for them, but that they have to be the ones to "go through and prove what you can do".

Rachel said: 'Who knows where life will take Amelie, but as long as she's doing something she's passionate about and she's happy, as her mum, that's all I could wish for'.

Amelie joined her mother for the interview and accompanying photoshoot, and revealed the best advice Rachel had gifted her was 'never give up on your dreams' and that if you 'put your mind to something you love, you can do anything'.

The young rising star said she does find it 'really weird' and 'funny' to think that her mother was a pop star.

She added: 'It is cool that I have a mum that's famous. I love watching the videos of S Club 7.'
