Tamara Ecclestone will "definitely" have another child but not just yet.

The 'Tamara's World' star would love to have a younger sibling for her three-year-old daughter Sophia - who she has with her husband Jay Rutland - but insists the time is not quite right at the moment.

Asked if she wants another baby, she said: "Yes and no. I would like to give her a sister or a brother, but on the other hand I feel like life is finally getting easier.

"I don't know, there's something daunting about going all the way back to square one. If Fifi was pressuring me for a sibling, it would make it easier, but she's actually saying she doesn't want one.

"I kind of wish I'd just done it earlier and got it out of the way! Jay definitely wants more, so I think the answer is I will, but I'm just not ready yet."

And Tamara adores being a mother, more than she thought she ever would.

She added: "Growing up, I wasn't one of those people who wanted the white picket fence, the Labrador, husband and baby, so this has taken me by surprise. I didn't think it would be as life-changing. The minute Fifi was born everything changed, and from the moment she was on the boob it was incredible. We've never had a night apart, and I really don't feel ready. I'm not a believer in doing things just because people say you should. The time will come."

Despite her great wealth, Tamara - who is the daughter of former Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone - doesn't want Sophia to be spoiled and is keen to teach her the importance of manners and being kind.

She told The Sun on Sunday newspaper's Fabulous magazine: "I think what's really important is to instil manners and be kind and all those things, above and beyond everything else. But at the same time she's my little girl, and if she wants another Barbie, I'm just a bit of a pushover! I think that the older she gets, I'll always remind her that she's lucky and to remember to give back, so it's not going to be like she can have whatever she wants, whenever she wants.

"I don't want her to be an obnoxious spoilt child, but I do want her to have the best of everything. We're very into 'please' and 'thank you', and at her nursery we did harvest festival and I was telling her about how not everyone has everything she has. The older she gets, I'll definitely reinforce that more."
