Former Australia cricket captain Michael Clarke has revealed that the challenges a single father faces are similar to that of a single mother. In February, Clarke and Kyly announced in a joint statement that their seven-year marriage had ended, but they remained committed to co-parent daughter Kelsey Lee, four. Clarke even said his bond with Kyly has grown stronger after the split.

"We always talk about single mothers; the challenges they face. But the single father faces challenges as well. There are things about Kelsey Lee that I learn every day. If I don't see her for three nights, I feel like my girl has turned six," Clarke told Stellar magazine recently.
