How do you think you and the other cast members will come across on TV?
"we’re all quite grounded, we’ve not all been born with money (except Lauren, who has) but we’re all from working class backgrounds, grounded, down to earth people."

How did your family feel about you doing Real Housewives?
"For me it was a bit harder than for the others because my boys are older and one of them is a professional footballer so he doesn’t want to see mummy *does screeching, animal sounds* on TV. But I haven’t changed since they were small so they know how mummy is. What you see is what you get, and maybe that’s not always nice to show, but hey that’s another side of me too."
