But for now the actress and model has stepped away from the cameras and is living a very different lifestyle. After giving birth in November to her son Forest, who she shares with fiancé Ollie Piotrowski, the new mum is settling into her biggest role to date. “Life has been a roller-coaster ride, but I’m doing great.
