'It's hard to let anyone into that world, and for anyone to want to be part of that world as well, so who knows what the future holds, but I'm happy.'
Sheridan went on to say she believes she is good at being single however, her friends would disagree.
She added: 'Of course, I'd love to get older with somebody, but if I don't I've got my boy and I live for him. It's me and him against the world. Everything is for him, so I don't feel the need now to be dating like I always used to. Hopefully one day someone will love me for me.'
It comes after Sheridan insisted she has 'no regrets' about taking the lead role in her West End flop Opening Night.
The actress' West End comeback has been fraught with difficulties including poor reviews and bad turnouts and as a result, the musical as been cancelled and will end two months earlier than originally planned.
Speaking to The Times, Sheridan got emotional as she explained she was 'heartbroken' for the cast and crew who have worked on the play but said she would do it all over again 'in a heartbeat'.
'I feel bad for the team and all the work they put in, but I'm at that age now where I want to be challenged,' the acclaimed actress explained.
'I want to do new things, I don't want to do that same old boring stuff. I would do it again in a heartbeat, so I have no regrets.'
