Miami Dolphins running back Reggie Bush has said that he wants marriage and children.

In co-hosting Live with Kelly Ripa on Monday, Bush was in the hot seat as host Kelly Ripa dug for details on his personal life.

Ripa asked Bush about his relationship status to which he replied, Do I have to answer that question?

But the football player did answer the question and girls all around the world might be glad to know that Bush is single.

Yeah, I'm single, Bush said. Sweating over here. Did somebody turn the heat on? It's getting hot in here!

Bush added that he doesn't want to be single forever.

I want to have a wife and kids and be able to raise a little Reggie and raise some kids some day, the hunky athlete continued. Hopefully they'll grow up to play football or do whatever it is they want. I'm not one of those guys who's going to make their kids play football and pound them when they're young and try to live my life vicariously through them. I'm not going to do that.

Those words must be music to his ex-girlfriend Kim Kardashian's ears, who divorced basketball player Kris Humphries after 72 days of marriage. The two got married last August in a fairytale wedding in California.

But Kardashian has said she married too quickly.

Before filing for divorce from Humphries, Kardashian admitted on camera that she made a mistake in marrying just eight months after knowing Humphries, according to the New York Post.

My heart is telling me I did this too fast, Kardashian said in an episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York.

Kardashian, 31, and Bush, 26, dated for about four years before splitting. She has always said she desired having children.

In January, Kardashian tweeted a picture of Humphries as a boy along with the message, I want my son to look like this!

The Post also reported that on her 30th birthday, Kardashian told People that she thought she would be married with four kids by that age.
