GYM STAR
She has appeared on the BBC show 'Gym Star' that tracks gymnasts through their training and competitions. "It was fun to film for Gym Stars, at first I felt a bit uncomfortable in front of the cameras but I soon got used to it and now we pretty much forget they are there. I didn't realise how many people would watch the show but the amount of lovely messages from Gym Stars viewers I receive is such an overwhelming feeling." (tresamagazine.com, 04 Sep 2018)
