I was born and brought up in Liverpool with my clever little sister Jemma, who is 14 and wants to be a vet. My mum Jane is an administrator and my dad Peter is a taxi driver.

I used to be such a daredevil but now I'm much more cautious.

I eat a lot of chicken with salad or salmon with salad.

I want to have a family and I'd like to live in a lovely big house, with a massive driveway and gates and loads of kids.

I got a mortgage at 17! I didn't even know you could get a mortgage at 17.

I just wanted to perform, to sing, dance and act.

If the press see you looking normal they can suddenly be 'oh, she's got a spot on her face, she's having a bad day'. That can be quite cruel.
