The amount of speculation surrounding my romantic life is astounding. It's strange how involved people get: invested and angry, really disappointed.

I think as a young actress, it's very rare that you read something where you're not either 'the girl' or there to serve some romantic purpose in a male dominated cast.

It's hard sometimes to not want to know what people are saying behind your back and to ignore certain things that are being written.

I lived my twenties in a very public manner and if anyone's twenties are documented it's not always going to be pretty.

I'm very lucky that I get to make a living out of acting, which is what I love, and the level of attention I receive has sometimes been my own fault and sometimes not been.

I have a good brain on me but I've never really used it when it came to decisions about love... I definitely have been foolish.

I can't wait to be seen as a woman. But I know I probably have to contribute to that with behaviour.
