  • She shares three children — Matilda, 9, Delilah, 6, and Charlie, 3 — with Scott Sinclair, and the kids spend part of school holidays with their father.
  • She said her recent anxiety has been severe and that she plans to exercise, see friends, sleep, and get organised before the new school term.
