“It was a moment I've worried about all my life. What if my kids are sc...” — Alex Brooker Quote

It was a moment I've worried about all my life. What if my kids are scared of me? But my daughter was holding my hand and just said: 'Oh, you've got two fingers haven't you and I've got four,' and that was it. It was all done and dusted in five seconds.

I remember going into counselling in 2010 because I became really conscious of my disabilities.

The Jump' was tough. I was asked to be the co-host, but I don't think my role was ever really defined, so it was quite chaotic. As somebody who hadn't done a lot of TV at that time, I felt like that reflected slightly in my performance.

My disability makes me emotional, but it also makes me laugh; the two are not mutually exclusive and I'm comfortable doing both. Joking about it can be a celebration of it, too.

All my life, growing up in the church, I always planned on going on a mission. There are certain missions where you get a chance to play ball. If I get one of those, great. But I'm going where they want me to go. I'll mature, and not just physically.

Scrutiny has never scared me because I have had detractors all my life.

I will always be a Newcastle United fan all my life.

In my life, looking at other women who have been pregnant while writing, I always feel like it's kind of their most musical or the closest to themselves. I think for me it's such a validating moment, you know. I always knew I wanted to have kids, and I've been making music all my life.
