She received a boarding school education, which laid the foundation for her future endeavors. However, her aspirations to act were initially met with resistance from her parents, who were not in favor of her pursuing a career in the performing arts.
Undeterred, she seized the opportunity to hone her skills during school holidays by enrolling in a modeling course. This decision ultimately led to her being offered a place on a prestigious modeling course in Manchester, which she eagerly accepted.
In a bold move, she rejected the opportunity to attend a drama school in London, opting instead to pursue her modeling career in Manchester. Her hard work and dedication paid off, as she quickly established herself as a successful model.
Before long, she made her television debut while still in school, earning the esteemed title of 'Britain's Most Glamorous Schoolgirl.' This early exposure paved the way for her subsequent success.
Her big break came when she was contracted as the resident hostess on the popular television show 'Sale of the Century.' This marked a significant milestone in her career, and she went on to further expand her talents by appearing in various productions, including 'Gems' and 'Allo, Allo.'
