I spend hundreds of pounds a year on candles and it is such a waste of money. It is burning cash whatever way you look at it but I love them.

I think it is outrageous - to lock people's money away and change the rules on them. So, on point of principle, I stopped putting money into my pension.

The most lucrative work I have done is presenting primetime TV shows. I do not know what other people earn but a six-figure salary is not uncommon.

I have a fall-back fund for the quiet months. I am a single working parent and it gets lonely when things are insecure.

I never got into debt because my parents had drummed into me at a young age: if you can't afford it, you can't have it.

Women trapped in violent relationships need to know that there's no shame in talking out and walking out on their abusive partners.

I now consider the money I put into my pension to have been a mistake.
