| Wrath - What makes you angry about the hospitality industry?
Poor service and rude waiting staff. It’s my pet hate, I can’t bare it. There’s no excuse really, if someone is not ready to take orders and look after customers then don’t put them out on the floor! Simple.
Greed - If all your travel fantasies came true where would we find you?
Exploring Argentina and Brazil. It’s the one area of the globe that I’m yet to travel to. From what I’ve read and what my friends who’ve already been have told me, I know I’m going to love it. Buenos Ares seems completely up my street and the beaches in Brazil sound like heaven on earth. Its on the list for next year!
Sloth - What do you do to unwind?
I do a hot yoga class or I go for a walk in the sunshine. I also love reading and watching box sets with my boyfriend. We’ve been known to watch TV for hours!
Pride - What are you most proud of?
My parents charity in Kenya. About 10 years ago they set up the Vipingo Village Fund, part of the charity is a school for Aids affected children in the area. These kids are the poorest of the poor, the ones who’ve been forgotten about but since the schools been running, they are now the brightest, most educated kids around. My mum has to single handedly raise nearly 100K a year to keep the school going…I sit on the board of trustees in the UK and do what I can to help but if it wasn’t for her, they’d be back on the scrap heap. We lost my Dad three years ago but his legacy lives on through the kids. I’m so proud of them, I could burst.
Lust - Is there anything that you are still lusting to achieve?
Oh yes plenty!! I’m not quite where I want to be in my career and that drives me to be better every single day. I want to make documentaries and tell stories and help people. I’ve got a lot to do.
Envy - who are you most envious of?
The Queen. Her wardrobe is fabulous.
Gluttony - have you ever over indulged?
I’m pregnant so over indulging is my new best friend. I spent years not eating that chocolate pudding or those bag of crisps. Now I don’t mind giving myself a little treat every now and again…and when I say little, I mean tub of ice cream.
