I've learnt that if I tell myself I'm not allowed something, I binge on it later. So if I want chocolate, I have chocolate. If I want biscuits, I have biscuits. I love cake. I just love cake.

It's about labeling. For me feminism is bra-burning lesbianism. It's very unglamorous. I'd like to see it rebranded. We need to see a celebration of our femininity and softness.

I love being on the beach - it's my favourite place. I can chill out, read, listen to music, play with my daughter.

I'm never getting too lonely because it's the kind of disease where you might sit in front of the TV with three bags of biscuits, rather than communicate with the world.

I've got an image of me at the bottom of my garden sitting under my silver birch tree reading, while everyone else had gone somewhere exotic.

In school nativity plays I was always the bloody little donkey, I was never Mary.

I have a history of eating disorders but, as a mother, you think of being an example to your child. I'm so much more balanced than I was.
