HEIGHT 5FT 3IN DRESS SIZE 8
Hi Samira. Do you feel body confident?
Yeah. It could be better for the summer, but I’m getting there.
What do you do for exercise?
I try to do three classes a week at BXR in London.
There’s a class called Versa Climber, where you get on this mad machine and they shout “Push” at you. It’s amazing.
I also have a personal trainer who I see as much as I can.
What’s your favourite part of your body?
My legs, because they’re quite muscly. And my least favourite is my stomach area – it’s really hard to tone!
Are you a healthy eater?
Yes. I like junk food, but I’m healthy overall. I’m quite a picky person. I have a lot of fish and meat.
What’s your favourite takeaway?
Chinese – I love duck pancakes.
Have you ever been tempted to go vegan or vegetarian?
I was going to go veggie for a week to see how it goes. I want to try for health and environmental reasons.
Does being in the public eye make you feel pressure to look good?
Probably, but
I’m the kind of person who doesn’t really care about what
I look like.
I’ll get on the tube looking like rubbish. Coming out of the villa there was a lot of pressure, but we’re all human.
What’s your top tip for being healthy?
Try walking instead of taking an Uber. It’s extra calories burnt.
