Singer, performer and lifestyle blogger Louise Redknapp, 44, shares her passions. She divorced last year and now lives with her two children.
What’s your earliest memory?
Being in my nan and grandad’s garden and putting jewellery on the tortoise! I think I was always interested in fashion and style. I now have a blog with my best friend Em (astylealbum.com), covering fashion, style, beauty, travel and interior inspiration.
And how early did you start loving music?
My earliest and fondest memory has to be when I was four years old – I was bubbling up with the excitement of getting up on a Saturday and my mum taking me to the church hall for tap and ballet classes! I ended up going to Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts and then going on to form the band Eternal. Music has always been a love.
Did you have a career plan B?
I never really had a plan B. I knew I always wanted to sing. However, if I hadn’t been a singer, I would have loved to have been a vet, I am a sucker for animals.
Best decision you’ve ever made?
By far the best decision I’ve ever made was having kids. They mean the world to me.
And the worst?
