I've been in relationships and had long-term boyfriends since I was 13, so I've always had that emotional pillar of support. I'd got to a point where I felt like I couldn't live without that.

I thought I was weak and couldn't be on my own. But actually, I can do it; I just need to be a bit braver.

I got really bored of sitting around waiting for work or for the next movie to come along that only 100 people would see. I got bored of being skint, of twiddling my thumbs, wondering how to take my life to the next stage.

My whole family are in the entertainment industry. It is always something I was used to; I was quite lucky growing up. To all my friends, it was quite exciting, but to me it was quite normal.

I have been brought up in an environment which was quite an exciting childhood.

I will never doubt myself again.

If you ever get a chance to just plonk yourself out of the world for a bit - do it! It's so amazing.

There's so many different kinds of beauty.

The most important thing in the world is the moment you're in now, so take it and be grateful.

You can't have an organised life and a five year plan and be an actor.

I don't make any plans. When I finish one job, I make the most of some time off, then get back on it again.

I will now be very mindful about it, and if I feel like I've been on my phone too much one day, I'm going to be more conscious of that and not be so obsessed.

I've always been frightened of turning thirty.

It's dangerous that we can all paint a completely false picture of ourselves.

I am so lucky in that I have the most incredible followers and support network.

I have amazing, amazing fans who are just lovely.

I'm not afraid to admit I have therapy. It's nothing to be ashamed of, and it really does help.

Being a curvy girl, I've always, in the past, dressed just what's flattering rather than what I actually really want to wear. I'm trying to say that you can wear whatever you want.

My social life is so important to me.

A social life is just as important to me as my work life because I think if you have a healthy balance of the two, you'll be really happy.

When In The Style came to me asking if I wanted to do a collection, I said very clearly what kind of collection I wanted it to be, and the lovely thing was that they were looking to do the same kind of thing. I stated that I didn't want any retouching, and I want the women modelling the clothes to represent all women.

I've done a lot of film, so I'd like to get back into television.

In this industry, there's a massive pressure to be a certain weight.

I'm just a regular size, and I'd love to see more women like that cast in lead roles.

I've been told I'd get so much more work if I was smaller, but going out for dinner and drinks with my friend is more important to me than size.

I sounded like a fantasist at school when you'd go round the class, and they'd say, 'What do Mummy and Daddy do?' I was like, 'Mummy's an actress, and Daddy's a musician, and he plays his guitar with Bonnie Tyler.' And the teachers used to, like, roll their eyes, like, 'She's mental!'

The 'Celeb Juice' job was never mine - people just guessed - but it was quite funny to watch the rumours.

This is the thing: I get motion sickness.

I'm naturally a very happy person, but I've had times with depression and have got through it with therapy.

Sometimes it's hard to admit, though, especially if you're known as a happy person, because you feel you're letting people down if you're not being happy 24 hours a day.

I love Keith Lemon. I love Holly Willoughby.

I've never really had the confidence to sing in front of people; then, I got into acting.

I'm dying to do a drama.

I'm never going to be the best skater, but I feel like I'm getting better.

A scam is a scam. A fraud is a fraud. Different rules don't apply in the City than they do for you and me.

The U.K.'s reputation as a business destination will suffer if its authorities cannot be relied on to enforce the law.

We have all these strong men in politics - whether it's Brazil, or the Philippines, or Trump, or Putin. They're all big men: it's let's look up to them, don't be afraid, they're looking after things. It's so fundamentally anti-democratic.

The social safety net was created by a united society in the aftermath of the Second World War. It came out of a British sense of fairness.

By creating a perception that the U.K. places a higher premium on striking commercial deals than it does on promoting and protecting human rights, our reputation in the world suffers.

The notion of women being written out of history is as old as the Bible, but it always seems more galling when it is the history of progressive movements - such as the abolitionist campaign in Britain or the fight for African-American civil rights - in which the role of women has been diminished.

White collar crime must be taken as seriously as any other crime.

The right to strike is one of the most important safeguards working people have in this country. It's a weapon of last resort that has served throughout history as a bargaining tool which allows unions to push for recognition of ordinary workers' rights to be paid fairly and treated with dignity.

Why the Tories are happy to subsidise home ownership for middle class graduates and affluent social tenants, but not for widows on low incomes, is simply beyond me.

Laws protecting this right - whatever the level of the minimum wage, and whatever the Government chooses to call it - are only as strong as the threat of enforcement is both real and feared.

The fact of the matter is that when governments fail - as the Tories have done - to tackle the root causes of working peoples' need for welfare support, like low pay and high rents, the number of working people relying on benefits increases.

People don't seem to be safe inside Pentonville, and now it transpires inmates can escape. That is the final straw. If they don't have control of the place, what is the point of it being there? This was built in 1842 and is totally inappropriate for modern needs.

I went to this rubbish school. I asked the careers master what he thought that I was going to do with my life, and he said I could always visit criminals in prison.

All the evidence shows that establishing the habit of voting as early as possible is a vital tool in making sure that it's maintained throughout people's lives.

It is clear that too many bankers think that laws are for the little people.

One of the fundamental pillars of international humanitarian law is that proper distinction should be made between military targets and civilians. That is why indiscriminate bombing, let alone the deliberate targeting of residential areas or agricultural infrastructure, is considered a war crime.
