I'm throwing myself back in because I like being married. I don't want to end this whole fabulous journey alone. I want someone by my side who I love and who loves me. I've finally found somebody who's up to the task of being my wife because I'm very high maintenance.

As the only girl growing up among three brothers I was always afraid of being excluded. If there was a game to be played a sport to be learned a competition to join I was on my feet and ready. I didn't spend much time alone for fear that I'd miss out.

Life certainly points it out to you - 'you can go this way or the other way.' You have to decide and it's a very strong decision because would you sleep well knowing that you're living in the best place but you're letting the place where you should live alone?

You watch a hockey game and the hand-eye coordination and the speed is really miraculous how those guys track the puck alone just following it with their eyes.

You may tell a man thou art a fiend but not your nose wants blowing to him alone who can bear a thing of that kind you may tell all.

The biggest opportunity in 2013 is in Africa. It has seven out of the ten fastest-growing economies in the world. In Nigeria alone there are 100 million people with mobile phones. In total 300 million Africans - five times the population of Britain - are in the middle class.

Life is so impermanent that it's not about somebody else or things around me it's about knowing you are completely alone in this world and being content inside.

I would point out that I'm an actress for a reason! If I were popular in high school I would have considered another career because I wouldn't have been alone in my room making up other characters for myself. I definitely had growing pains. The popular kids didn't want anything to do with the girl who was starting the drama club.

One of the places where we lived when I was growing up had this big wood out the back. And starting when I was about 8 I used to enjoy just walking alone through the wood late. Eleven p.m. Midnight. Later.

For me growing up the downside of it was that as a kid you don't want to stand out. You don't want to have a famous father let alone get a job because of your famous father you know? But I'm a product of nepotism. That's how I got my foot in the door through my dad.
