“I do find I’m not as hungry these days – it’s to do with being rich (laughs). It’s brilliant – I love being rich!”
Going on, she told the publication: “It just means I have this sense of security, and do I need to eat this? Am I hungry right now?
“I might be hungry later, so let’s put it aside and I can come back and eat it up.”
