Kim Wilde thinks UFO 'changed her life'

Kim Wilde claims seeing a UFO "changed her life".

The 'Kids in America' singer is convinced she and her friend spotted an otherworldly being in the sky six years ago and the encounter made her feels more "connected" to the universe.

She said: "I was in my garden with a friend, the day after Michael Jackson died, and we saw two bright lights in the sky. They were about 20 times the size of an aeroplane. They were hovering and then zig-zagging really quickly for about 10 minutes. It was in the local paper as we weren't the only ones who saw it. It changed my life.

"I feel connected to the universe and it's made me really inspired, full of wonder and hope. I believe it's similar to when someone says they've seen God."

Though Kim is not religious, she believes she is "eternal" and her spirit will live on forever.

She told OK! magazine: "I feel I'm eternal, that's all I know but that's a big thing to know.

"I had a sense of it before but now I know. I think my husband and I are on the same page about it, both of us think we will be making that journey together."
