Nikki shot to fame when she performed at the opening and closing ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympics, shortly following the now-infamous stint with a hit single Strawberry Kisses.

She released a song here and there over the next two decades, though never anything as big as an entire studio album.

Just this month, Nikki spoke to Woman’s Day about her two adorable kids, daughter Skylah, five, and two-year-old son Malachi.

Chatting about their sweet relationship with Nikki’s dad, Mark, she said: “You know I was a little daddy’s girl growing up so I just love watching the relationship with Skylah and him, and both my parents.”

“My kids absolutely adore them! I often catch myself just watching them both interact with my parents and thinking to myself they’re so lucky to have a nana and poppy so close to them,” she said.

The former child star also spoke of a potential return to TV, saying she wouldn’t say no to being the next Bachelorette.
