I'm a new mum who spends her days making baby food and cooking for her man. And I couldn't be happier.

I wanted to step forward and be on TV and for people to see who I really was.

I am not trying to give an image of a fairytale, perfect, everything else, I am just being myself.

I did not know what my future was going to hold.

I am utterly in love with my son and my boyfriend and live in the most magical place on Earth. I've been in Norway for ten months now and I have loved every minute of it.
