I was brought up to understand that we are all here on planet earth together.

I feel like a different person since my mum passed away, like I'm driving a ship with my husband alongside me and we're leading these four children into unknown waters.

For me, singing is the most natural thing in the world. I've grown up with it and I know I've got that gift.

People think I'm strong, but actually I wanted to crawl away. I thought, I'm going to live in the country with my horse and I'll get a nine-to-five; I don't need this.

It's not realistic to live in the country at this stage. I've got a business in London. I beat myself up about it all the time.

You feel like everyone hates you if you've got a good life, now I feel maybe it's allowed because I've had my share of sadness.

The really great thing about my shop is that there's not one dead animal in it. ... Manolo's got a load of fabric shoes as well! We use plastic, fabric, rubber- anything but leather. I almost feel like I've been put here to show everyone that it's unnecessary.
