I’ve never been on a fad diet.

I did like hanging out with all the rock’n’roll boys – it was fun but all those relationships didn’t work out.

At weekends, I’ve been going on long but steady-paced four-and-a-half-hour bike rides.

Now I look back and think if I’d spent more time enjoying myself instead of crying into my pillow over men, my 20s would have been fabulous!

I don’t know what I would do without my smartphone as I am on the go all day.

Essex is an amazing county, with its own set of rules. It’s a completely different world.

I mean, I’m lucky because I’ve slimmed down, but the last thing I was thinking about was losing weight.

If you try to breastfeed and it’s not working, then you don’t feel particularly good about yourself.

It wasn’t through choice that I became a mum at 36. I wanted to be a young mum but things never worked out for me.

I’d got to that age when I was out on a date with a guy and I would be thinking: Don’t mention your age, don’t mention that you want a child – because they would just run out the door.
