My husband is the chef of the family; he's a brilliant cook. Actually, it makes you quite lazy when you have somebody that's so good at cooking under the same roof. It's all beans or spaghetti when I'm left to run it.
Life is simply too short to think about everything you put in your mouth, and it's not good for children to see you picking over bits of salad.
I don't like dirt. Cleanliness is high on my agenda, but I don't have a phobia of dirt. I'm just not keen on it. I don't really like dirty people or houses or smelly things.
My beauty regime is very simple. I just take my make-up off before bed. And oh, I always put moisturiser on. But that's about it, apart from a bit of soap maybe.
I'm a total stationery fiend - I have drawers and drawers of lovely printed cards and wrapping paper.
It's a healthy thing to get some bad criticism. I'm still here and I'm fine, but I'd be lying if I said it didn't get to you reading the negative stuff.
When I grew up in central London, we had six pavement slabs for a garden.
There's always a sense of tragedy with icons. It happened to both the Princess of Wales and Diana Dors. A lot of people had grown up with them, and everybody loved them. Then, when they had at last found happiness, they were taken in the most dreadful way.
I've never seen an episode of 'Downton Abbey.'
The Turkish people are the friendliest I've ever met.
I love fashion; I adore it. I love the madness of it.
There are all sorts of ways you can take somebody's identity or change your own, and a million things you can do with it once you have. It's quite incredible.
My children have been all over the world, and I think it's so good for them: expanding their horizons and imagination and seeing how other people live.
It's very easy to keep putting off having a family if you enjoy your job, but you just have to get on with life.
Children will be children, and they're inquisitive. If teenagers want to know what's out there, they'll look, but there are things that aren't for their eyes.
I am not into action and adventure on holiday; that doesn't really do it for me. I would much rather go and lie down.
Something like a divorce does change you, but children change you more, and now I've had three.
I happen to know there is nothing sexy or romantic about love scenes. They are just awful to do.
I do love playing aristocrats, probably because it's so against type. So much more interesting than playing a version of yourself.
I worked in McDonald's, but I didn't mind it. You got free cheeseburgers. I love eating a bit of junk food.
