“I find talking about my breakdown really easy.”
“I'm a love it or hate it kind of person, either really loud or really quiet, and things are either fantastic or rubbish.”
“One of things I find really irritating is when people say, 'You need to exercise, it'll make you feel better.' When you are in the deepest, darkest hole, that is the last thing that you can imagine doing.”
“I love bracelets.”
“My nan always had lots of jewellery and I remember she had these little pots that she kept on the dressing table. I would sit in front of the mirror and try it all on.”
“We all get wrapped up in the cool thing of the moment, but I think it's more important to stick to what works for you.”
“I learned a lot about make-up during my years in The Saturdays. For all of us, make-up ended up being a real mask of confidence. We used to wear a lot of heavy make-up because we were on stage so much. I remember at one point having two or three sets of false eyelashes applied in one go.”
“For as long as I can remember I had suffered from anxiety, nervousness, the big black cloud, stress, low moods, sadness.”
“It's the little things that make me happy.”
“Living with your in-laws is unusual, but it doesn't bother me.”
“I think it's really easy for women that haven't put on weight to make comments about other women's pregnancies.”
“Firstly, I would say 'kindness is free' - we've all been on the receiving end of a smile from someone when you need it and it can work wonders. And secondly 'take risks' - sometimes the very thing you fear is actually what you need to do.”
“When I fell pregnant in 2013, I wanted to come off my medication. But my doctor said, 'You won't be able to be a mum to your newborn child if you're in hospital.' He was right and I continued taking them through pregnancy.”
“I stress out a lot like most parents about a work life balance.”
“If we go out we'll go to the cinema which is a great excuse for me to eat popcorn.”
“I've experienced so much, travelled and met amazing people. So most of my dreams have come true, even though there's always more to aim for.”
“I've had to think about my haircare more seriously since growing it long. When you have short hair you're constantly dealing with much younger sections of hair and it always looks really healthy. With longer hair it takes more time and dedication.”
“I am always going to struggle. Nine times out of 10 I am fine, but then I have days when I want to stay in bed. They are shorter periods, and not as bad as they used to be. If I can spend a day in bed and I can get Wayne to take the kids, I let myself do it. I only allow myself a day and then the next day I feel so much better.”
“All my closest friends are the ones I made at school.”
“Parker was a nightmare. But Carter seems to like his sleep and is a chilled, content baby.”
