The model and author, 32, on boarding school syndrome, salt obsession, believing in ghosts and getting some good advice
We moved as a family every few years – Germany, Belgium, London, Portsmouth – because my dad was in the Royal Navy. I found it tricky to navigate, but it made me independent. I can get up and go to a different country, live on my own and be quite comfortable.
Boarding school syndrome is real. To give me stability my parents sent me to one when I was 12, but I’m not good with authority or sleepovers. In order to cope I developed a massive binge-eating disorder. Suddenly I was bigger and people started making comments.
