To give you an idea of who I am when I am not conducting a wedding ceremony (or making entertainment TV), here’s a few facts about my personal life.

I am a mother, I have a son and a daughter, who are the true loves of my life. They make me proud every day.

I am a dog lover, all dogs. Even the slobbery ones.

My little Leo, Maltese dogs are the best!

I enjoy exercise, reformer Pilates, strength training, running and long walks in the gorgeous Cheshire countryside where I live.

I love food and my weakness is chocolate, the good stuff though, 70% dark, hence the need for regular exercise!

I like to read and spend time with friends. Strangely, even though I’ve produced a lot of it, I rarely watch TV! Although I do love to watch films and dramas.

I am a music lover, my darling late husband, Graeme was the guitarist in Deacon Blue. Music was a shared passion, I love reminiscing whilst listening to the songs we both adored.

I am a passionate Manchester United fan (don’t let that put you off, City, Liverpool, Arsenal fans) with a season ticket at Old Trafford in the Bobby Charlton stand alongside my parents. And I absolutely love it!

I’d like to think that my best traits are being thoughtful and kind.

I’m also fiercely loyal and supportive to family and friends.

I care about the impact of my actions on others and the world around me.

I’ll admit to being determined (yes, some might say stubborn) but it’s with the best of intentions and because I believe in doing the right thing.
