I've always been very independent. Even in relationships, I'm focused on the quality of my life and not enmeshing myself so much with somebody else's experience. But I think there's incredible value in being married.

I try to do one thing at a time to utilise my time well.

I cook and I really believe in the family dinner, I think that's a nice time to bring the family together.

I definitely don't read any tabloids. You really have to find a way to separate the words of people you respect - stranger or not, but respectful content, positive or negative - and people who are just in pain and projecting their own sh*t onto you.

I don't know if I came to this life with it or if it's something that came to me in my childhood, but I do feel that some of the things my parents said to me and how they raised me really stuck with me.

I always knew I wanted to act, but my parents neverencouraged me. If I was talentless, they didn't want me to be heartbroken.

One year I was given a birthday present I'll never forget - a cooking lesson from Jamie Oliver.
