My mother isn't particularly vain. Growing up with a parent who put emphasis on personality over looks was important.

I didn't mean to be a TV presenter, I just hated modeling. It feels very odd that it's turned into this 'It-girl' thing. What does that even mean? I wear clothes and I go out. It's so weird.
