Are you healthy?
On a scale of one to 10 I'm an eight. The older you get, and the more kids you have, the more you want to take care of yourself. I want to set a good example for them.
Do you worry about your weight?
No. I don't believe in diets - I believe in making healthy eating part of your everyday lifestyle. Plus, I do have a husband who cooks the most delicious food. He's really good on herbs and dressings; he marinates everything, so it melts in your mouth. If you're going to eat healthily, make it taste right.
What exercise do you take?
I only work out every other day for one hour, but I like to mix it up, so it could be an hour's hike, a spin class, or the gym doing cardio and weights. I work out with friends, so we have a good old gossip as well. I love it because I see results - I do 400 abs every other day and I see results on my stomach; I do an hour of cardio every other day and I see everything tightening up.
How much sleep do you need?
Seven hours, but with kids you can never make sure you'll get that, especially with a newborn. I'm not too bad if I don't get enough sleep - I've got too much energy to be grumpy.
Attitude to smoking?
I've smoked on and off for years, but it's a really bad thing and I wouldn't promote it. I've never been a heavy smoker or heavy drinker - I'm more on the healthy, fun side than the "let me destroy my body" side.
Have you ever taken antidepressants?
No, and if I had done I wouldn't tell you. But truthfully I haven't.
Have you ever had therapy?
Yeah, I love it. Everybody would benefit from it, whether it be with a friend or an actual therapist, at least twice a month, in moderation, and not for ever.
Is sex important to you?
A healthy sex life and a healthy relationship go hand in hand.
NHS or private?
You have to be private in LA - they don't have another option, which is really sad. That's why a lot of homeless people are in serious trouble, plus they don't have the dole. We donate a lot of our stuff to the LA children's hospital and a lot of our money to Meals on Wheels in the States. Living in LA has made me appreciate how important the NHS is.
