“Dave Grohl is my favourite musician ever because I was a massive fan of Nirvana. I really admire him because he can play so many different instruments.”

“Winning the MTV search and becoming the face of MTV News was so refreshing. I travelled the world, constantly meeting interesting people, and I quickly learned that this kind of news was more fun and made me feel less sad.”

“I love candles and creating a homely space.”

“You kind of wonder when you play a role, will people go 'Oh, is that part of you?'”

“I started listening to 'Serial' but remember being home alone and the electricity went - I don't think I've ever been more scared!”

“Everyone reacts to things differently but just identifying in your own life, what works, seeing what doesn't, is as important for to you to talk about your own mental health.”

“I downloaded a Kylie Minogue album and it had all the classics like 'I Should Be So Lucky' and 'Locomotion.' I'm not even ashamed to say I love it, I'm proud.”

“We don't have to eat the best food to survive: a basic diet will get us through. We wear clothes to stay warm and hide our modesty, they don't need to be the latest designer collection.”

“We can be kind to others and kind to ourselves - and what anyone else decides to do is up to them. We can just be responsible to ourselves.”

“When you talk about our good and bad mental health stuff, it makes you realise you're not the only one feeling that way. It's OK to talk; it doesn't mean you're crazy or abnormal in any way. In fact, it's the opposite.”

“As a TV presenter I've found it's important to always have great looking feet.”

“I'm obsessed with Stevie Nicks and I think she's awesome - everything from her music to her style.”

“I love my home comforts and I need to nest to feel grounded.”

“I definitely want a family.”

“It can be easy to want to host everyone at once, but when it comes to virtual dinner parties - the smaller the group the better.”

“I love Caitlin Moran, because I feel like she's a friend, or a friend I want to have at least.”

“My mum and dad are great mates.”

“I used to care too much what people thought.”

“If a guy looks in the mirror more than I do it's a bad sign. I like scruffy, but not smelly.”

“Health is not just a physical thing for me anymore - there is a huge mental side as well.”
