Former supermodel Tyra Banks is looking for love, but will wait for Mr Right because disappointing relationships have left her heartbroken.

The AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL creator, who has been linked to singer SEAL and film director JOHN SINGLETON in the past, claims she won't settle until she meets 'the one'.

The 33-year-old beauty says, "I want someone to be there because I want him there, not because I need him there. I never wanted to depend on someone.

"When we were filming the last season of Top Model, I was going through some man drama. Heartbreak is serious pain! But once you get through it, you look back at the person you were crying over and realise they were never meant to be the one."
