But aside from the excitement of her wedding, chatting with her reveals a bubbly and intelligent personality; someone that has had an interesting career climb and has a lot to share with the world.
Just for fun
On a lighter note now, if you were stuck on a lonely island, what three things would you love to have with you?
My Bible, my water and my husband.
What is your favourite colour?
It used to be black and then I didn’t know when it came to blue. I just go with the flow, I don’t really have a favourite colour now.
Do you cook often?
Yes but not as often as I want to.
What meal do you have the biggest challenge with when cooking?
If I have challenge about cooking a particular meal, I just won’t cook it. Cooking has to be fun for me. It has to be something I know I can make.
Tell me something most people don’t know about you?
I have Insomnia. I called my producer up one time and she was sounding very sleepy and then I checked the time and it was past two am. I had no idea. When people say they have time changes affecting them, not me. I just write or I am in the studio.
