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

I don't do faddy diets any more. I once did a no-carbs diet a few years ago but it made me depressed. I couldn't be doing with that!

I always wanted to act and sing, but my first love was ballet.

I don't find it a struggle to maintain a healthy diet now as my palate has changed. I don't crave rich food.

Everyone thinks that just because you have a Scouse accent, then you must be 'on the rob'.

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'm very close to my family. Not like these big stars - not mentioning any names - who lose the plot and don't know who they are.
