I am at my best when… I'm active. I tend to go into a mini-depression when I have nothing to do.
Friends who know me best describe me as… Loyal, thoughtful – and rubbish at replying to texts!
The proudest moment of my life was… my wedding . It was the most fantastic day – one I wish I could relive over and over. Matt looked so incredibly handsome.
It really annoys me when… passengers interfere with my driving, telling me where to go or putting the gears into neutral when I'm not looking.
My most vivid memory as a child is… being taken to a sweet shop by my great uncle Bob for my fifth birthday. I sat in the front seat of his car and he told me I could choose whatever sweets I wanted.
My greatest fear is… death, and all the things connected to it – where you go, dying alone, losing people you love, the pain.
At the end of my life I want to look back and say… I was blessed with an incredible family and made the most of the time I had.
The biggest risk I have taken in my life is… getting married. When you think about it, giving yourself and all of your emotions to one person is a pretty risky business.
I would be happier if… Britain had a real summer. Right now, I'm the happiest I've ever been – all that's missing is a bit of sunshine!
I am overcome by strong emotions... Often
I enjoy participating in high-risk activities and extreme sports... Often
Being tidy and organised is important to me... Often
I like my day well-planned and organised... Often
I lose focus when I'm under stress or pressure... Sometimes

EMMA SAYS “There’s no place like home! I drew the house as I’m very much a stay-at-home person. I’m always happiest at home, surrounded by family and friends.”
Emma appears in Celebrity Adrenaline Junkie, Wednesday, 9pm, ITV2, and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Now! from mid-November, ITV2.
JAMES' VERDICT Emma is an action girl, brimming with nervous energy.
She is bold and adventurous, enjoying different types of challenges.
However, her responsible and organised nature means she wants to be well-prepared.
As an extrovert, she enjoys the company of others and is seen as energetic, fun and enthusiastic.
This, together with her positive and considerate nature, make her well-liked with a wide circle of friends – even if she’s bad at replying to texts!
Her picture suggests she’s practical and down to earth, and that she’s looking for more balance between her work and home life, probably as a result of her recent marriage.
It may also represent a secure refuge from the underlying anxiety she feels in response to pressure.
Emma becomes deeply emotionally involved with others, which may make her vulnerable to stress and hurt if things don’t go well, but her positive outlook and pragmatic nature will enable her to deal with whatever’s thrown at her.
James is a specialist in psychometric testing.
Being likeable isn’t essential in order to achieve your goals and your aspirations, but it certainly helps.
This 5-minute test is designed to find out the extent to which others will find you warm and likeable.
To get an accurate result, you should be as honest as possible when answering these questions. Your responses to the statements should reflect who you really are, not the way you wish to be seen by others.
We recommend you complete the test in a quiet spot free of distractions. You first response is typically your most natural response so trust your instincts and don’t go back and change your answers.

48 – 60
People will see you as exceptionally likeable. They will be eager to spend time with you and get to know you as you have a personal magnetism they will find hard to resist. You will find it easy to make new friends, colleagues and contacts as they will feel energised and uplifted by your charm and friendliness.
24 – 47
You are moderately likeable. People will want to spend time with you and get to know you better as you are typically a warm and friendly person. However, you would benefit from monitoring your behaviour carefully when interacting with others to ensure you are successful in managing your relationships.
Below 24
You may experience relationship problems due to your low likeability score. If you want to be liked by others and build your network you will need to do some work on increasing your warmth and personal appeal. Tips to do this include becoming more aware of how you come across to others by asking for feedback, smiling more often and maintaining a positive attitude, controlling your insecurities and negative emotions, knowing your personal strengths and how to use these to provide value to others and withholding judgements about people until you get to know them.
