I've got a scar on my shin from when I got shot in New York when I was 17. I was outside a McDonald's and somebody shot a gun from a car, and the bullet grazed my leg.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
But I find it so difficult to go out and be like 'Hey, I'm a sexpot.' At home I'm just a mum with food down her top!
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I'm going to hide - I always do on my birthday, I never celebrate birthdays.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I travel a lot for work, so downloading books is easier than carrying them around.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
Every time I tell someone that I'm doing 'Spooks,' they're like, 'Wow!' That's a guaranteed reaction. It's such a high-end show, it's so sexy and slick and smooth.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I like to have things around me that I love. However, I'm not a hoarder and get rid of everything I don't need.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I have months where I go to the gym all the time, but sometimes I choose long walks instead.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
You have to eat well, drink enough water and get enough sleep to look your best, and no fancy creams will substitute that.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I do like to keep my face moisturized even when I'm not wearing make-up, but I don't use too many products.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
When I was modeling, I'd go for castings in a pair of really tight, leopard-print trousers, like jeans, but with a velvet finish - very Rod Stewart, but also very sexy.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
While other people were dreaming of big cars and houses, I just wanted a huge dressing room.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
There is this thing called catastrophic thinking - you start thinking that something catastrophic is going to happen. I get on a plane and I think it's going to crash, I just know it's going to crash, so you're petrified.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
Kids will always find something to pick on, whether it's your color, your religion, the way you look, your size. You try and stand up for yourself, but it's really difficult when you've got 20 or 30 girls against you.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
When you have kids your priorities change. What you are looking for in a partner becomes more complex.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I wasn't born into money and there have been jobs in the past that I've not wanted to take on, but I've had to because of the money.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I want my daughter to grow up with memories of home-cooked meals, just as I did as one of seven children by Moroccan parents.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
For modeling, you have to be photogenic, but to be a VJ, you actually project your whole personality.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I'm doing the film 'Don't Stop Dreaming' with Rishi Kapoor and Suniel Shetty. They're both so funny and fantastic!
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I'd be scared of hitting 60 and looking like a granny when the child's just in their teens. I'm happy I had my daughter when I was in my 30s.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I'm not a marriage person. I've realized that it's not for me, the commitment and all that.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
My mother's incredibly independent and she brought us up to be the same. She had five daughters and two sons and only allowed one mirror in the house because she didn't want us to be obsessed with our looks or weight.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I grew up with strong women around me. My grandmother came to this country not able to speak the language, on her own with seven kids. And she got through it.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I don't think anyone imagines themselves being a single parent. But I don't have a choice.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I want my daughter to grow up with some kind of ambition. I want her to work and to have that independence.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
You want to be the best at your career, you want to be the best mum, a great wife and all of that. Most of the time, it's not possible. You have to compromise somewhere.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I just don't believe you can have it all and be great at everything, something has to give at some point. You've got to give yourself a break sometimes.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I was shown around Ronnie's house by his father, who told his son about meeting me. Ronnie called the estate agent, a friend of mine, and asked me out via her.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
Ronnie's lovely with his children, we see them often, and he's a fabulous step-father to Inez. He's such a good male role model for her and they're friends who laugh together as well.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
I'm over the moon to be joining the cast of 'Holby' and am enjoying bringing the character of Sahira Shah to life.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
Every break-up is unique. But when there are children involved you don't know where to turn.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
When I was younger I used to volunteer at the Mother Teresa charities in India.
Quote by -Laila Rouass
It was quite emotional leaving 'Holby' but it was the right time. I was working long hours and wanted to spend more time with my daughter.
