It was an appalling shock when he died. None of us can really believe, even now, that Freddie's gone. There was so much about him that was just overwhelmingly powerful and beautiful. Hide

It is vital to keep in shape because opera is about credible casting. If you are playing a fabulous role you have to look fabulous and sometimes you have to wear very skimpy clothing or nothing at all. I've been nude on stage before now and can't aford to have a saggy tush. Hide

I love swimming, skiing, horse-riding, cycling and walking but I find that stretching is the most vital thing in my life. I have a stretch routine that I do every day, particularly for my lower spine.

What I love about becoming older is that I'm really getting into make-up. I use a lot more than I used to and it's very sexy. I also used to be a jeans and T-shirt girl until my late thirties, but now, because I've looked after my figure, I can wear grown-up clothes by designers such as Maria Grachvogel, Jenny Packman, Jimmy Choo.

I'm quite an energetic person so slacking isn't my nature. My idea of relaxation would be a skiing holiday or going to a football match and screaming. Or not getting dressed all day, leaving the children in their pyjamas and eating whatever's in the fridge. Hide
