I've got a really great family round me, two sisters and an older brother and my mum and dad. Everybody's equal.
I had my footballing heroes such as Bryan Robson and Diego Maradona but my dad was a rugby league star, and he was my real hero. But the relationship with my mum was rocky and we saw things that would affect any youngster.
My dad doesn't watch 'Coronation Street.' But my mum is a massive fan. I'd like to think my dad will watch it for a few token episodes, as I'm in it.
My mum is a bit unconventional; she's outdoorsy and has more of an emotional intelligence, whereas my dad is pragmatic; he's a businessman.
The thing about dads is, even when they're very good, they don't do anything like as much as most mums do.
Living in the fishbowl is hard enough without worrying about a Secret Service that can't keep mum.
I still think of my mum as being kind of a dork - a cooler one, but still a dork.
Mum: [about Paquita] I'll tell you what she is. She's EXPERIENCED.

The work my mum does, a lot of it is re-housing homeless people, that's a real job. I play make-believe and dressing up for a living!
My mum has told me that I have to work with Antonio Banderas just so that she can meet him and try and marry him.
As a single mum I have to work, so I'm grateful to have the help of a wonderful and trusted nanny like I had when I was young.
I grew up in a house full of women. I have two older sisters and my mum who is a very strong woman.
Have you ever done something that you were really ashamed of? I mean somehing so bad you felt sick just thinking about it?' 'Everyone has. Why, what'd you do?' 'I didn't say goodbye to Mum.' 'That's not so bad.' 'Did you say goodbye to your mum befor...
I felt awful as I drove away to live with Melody in Barnet. I stayed with her for six months before I moved in with Jane. Looking back now, I was a coward for allowing the situation to go on for so long, but I wanted to keep everybody happy. Strangel...
I think I'd be more relaxed as an older mum, although fundamentally life with a baby is pretty much the same whatever age you are. It's nappies, crying, feeding.
I don't know much about only children. I was the middle one of three, and if ever I was alone with mum and dad, it was a rare moment.
And anyway, it’s not as though I’ll never see Mum again, is it?
Taking Mum's hand, I whispered "Are we really safe, here?
My mum will not speak above a low whisper in public because she doesn't want to draw attention to herself.
