Single Tyra Banks feels 'empty' at home

Washington, Jan 11: Supermodel Tyra Banks may have fame and money but she still feels lonely at home.

The 34-year-old model revealed that she misses family and friends.

"I'd go to work and women would be crying in my arms on the talk show. But then I'd go home and put my key in my door and ... nothing: no friends, no husband, no children. I feel so full when I'm at work but so empty when I come home," People quoted her as telling Essence magazine.

Banks insists that her career ambitions have shoved aside her desire to be a mother.

"After the talk show started, and I had Top Model at the same time, it engulfed me so much that it dulled my maternal instinct," she added.

However, rumours are abuzz that "America's Next Top Model' host is involved with investment banker John Utendahl, 50 and has hence moved the production of her shows to New York from Los Angeles, but she denies the rumours.

"I'm very insulted by that rumour. I employ a lot of people; their livelihoods rest on my shows. The move to New York was a decision I made with my manager. It was not about a man," said Banks.
