"What's lovely about it is that everybody's doing it, we're not doing it on our own and I'm just taking comfort in that really, and also the fact that I’m bonding more with my son. We go on bike rides now, we never did that before, so there are some really great things that are coming out of this."
Speaking about her home-schooling struggles, she then admitted: "I'll be honest with you, I am the worst teacher, I've got the biggest respect for teachers, I mean I'm constantly saying, 'Come on let's get on our work, this is our time now' and he's like, 'Alright I'll be ten minutes' and I'm like, 'Alright then'.
"Also he's quite independent now he's 15, so he's kind of taking most of the responsibility on himself and I'm kinda glad that he's not younger because I'd be rubbish, absolutely rubbish."
