She also teamed up with Weight Watchers, and revealing her weight loss secret, she said: “I didn’t realise that often when I used to snack, it was because I was thirsty. I try to get through at least two litres of water every day now and that makes me feel so much better.

“I now have a personal trainer and he’s amazing. I work at my own pace – we do circuits and I absolutely love it.”
