The 51-year-old singer, who famously claimed she had never been kissed when she first appeared on talent show 'Britain's Got Talent', said that she did have a relationship with a man, reported Showbizspy.
"ABBA's song 'The Winner Takes It All', (which she has recorded for her new album 'Standing Ovation') reminds me of a relationship I once had and this made me tearful when I had to sing it," Boyle said.
Last year, the singer, who was catapulted into limelight in 2009 after appearing on the talent show, said that she was desperate to find a boyfriend as she wants someone to share her life with.
"I'm on my own quite a lot and that special person hasn't come along yet. I've had a few offers in the past and, let me tell you, some of them are beauties.
"And some of the photographs I've been sent - oh my God! Let's just say they were not suitable for me. Only Donny Osmond has really caught my eye - but he's spoken for," she had said.
