I've worked since I was 18. I have no trust fund and don't expect anything.

People tend to assume that I come from a long line of castle-dwelling gentry and am made of money.

The government has got to do something to help independent businesses.

I don't believe in diets, as I always put whatever I lost right back on again. I think we should all just eat healthily and get as much exercise as we can.

My husband says he wants to have the best hay field in Britain. I can't wait.
