I think the pressure to be perfect generally in life has amped up massively in the last twenty years: especially for young people with the advent of social media.

For me, writing Bridget's [Jones] stories is an instinctive, organic thing, which tends to happen more by accident than design.

With so many dark things to worry about in the world right now, I hope people will just go with the fun and enjoy [ Bridget Jones's Baby: The Diaries].
