As for becoming queen, it was never on the forefront of my mind when I married my husband. It was a long way off, that thought.

The public wanted a fairy princess to come and touch them and everything would turn to gold. Little did they realise that the individual is crucifying herself inside because she didn't think she was good enough.

A mother's arms are more comforting than anyone else's.

No one sat me down with a piece of paper and said, This is what is expected of you. But... I'm lucky enough in the fact that I have found my role... I love being with people.

There's no better way to dismantle a personality than to isolate it.

You see yourself as a good product that sits on a shelf and sells well, and people make a lot of money out of you.

It took a long time to understand why people were so interested in me, but I assumed it was because my wonderful husband had done a lot of wonderful work leading up to our marriage and our relationship. But then, over the years, you see yourself as a good product that sits on a shelf and sells well. People make a lot of money out of you.
