This period followed her move from Little Lever, near Bolton, to a unique living space in London.In a July interview with the Times, when quizzed about the worst place she's lived, Sara shared: "I was in a very unhappy relationship when I first moved to London.

I lived in Arnos Grove in Enfield, north London, in a converted church."She continued: "I was with this person who turned out to be horrible and he stole from me.

I felt emotionally stranded there. Then I binned him off and the MTV [from 1997] and Big Breakfast [from 1998] years began." Before her television breakthrough, Sara tried her hand at modelling, eventually landing a spot on Channel 4's The Girlie Show in 1996, and moving on to host a late-night music show on MTV the following year, reports the Manchester Evening News.
