Belle was born in March 2014, with Penelope arriving in December 2017.

She said: “There was a time when I’d resigned myself to never having a family of my own.
“With Penelope, we were trying for over a year and a half.”
The mum of two tends to keep the identity of her children out of the spotlight.
Speaking about her decision to do so, she said: “I did a photoshoot with each child as a newborn a few days old and that’s it, I have never shown them since and can say I definitely never will.”
