“It’s been exactly three years since that issue of Style, and I’m just about to release my second solo album – perhaps me being in the magazine is somehow linked to my music! I’ve also become the principal for The School of Performing Arts (SOPA).” Issue

“The shoot was a very different and new experience for me and, despite the fact that it took a whole day, it was an organised chaos in my house which I truly enjoyed. All five of my children were well behaved too, and the photos with them looked lovely.
“My priorities have changed since December 2012, however. Whereas I still love my work and I still have a huge passion for family law, I find that my children, and my need to be with them, has by far superseded anything that I could have ever imagined possible.” Issue

“Being asked to be on the cover of Style was definitely the nicest part of the whole experience. It’s closely followed by the positive feedback I received from others, and, I think, for someone who’s not a model, this experience was invaluable. I also liked the fact that the photos felt very ‘me’.

“There have been no babies or lottery wins since March 2013, but I have moved on quite a bit! Just eight months ago, I opened my own salon in Sliema. I’ve also flown the nest, and moved into my own place.” Issue

“In a part of my interview in Style I had said that I was lucky to have found my life partner. A few weeks after it was published, my then-boyfriend mentioned it and said that he felt the same way, and asked me to marry him. So Style may well have influenced my life rather significantly!

“My life has been quite a roller coaster since October 2013. As aforementioned, I got engaged and married in the span of a few months, while work in the salon has kept me very busy too.” Issue

“Having my photo taken with my children was one of the best moments of the whole experience. They were both very excited to be on the magazine and so was I, as it really brought memories of my teenage modelling years rushing back. “Apart from the fact that I now have a few extra hours to myself thanks to my children being at school, not much has changed since December 2013. Chez Philippe is still doing well and my life mostly revolves around my little ones.” Issue

“Jo and I have been friends since school, so it was great to take our friendship from pyjama parties to working on a magazine cover together. Being interviewed by her was one of the best moments and I was really touched by her personal interjections when I read the article. It was also interesting to be in front of the camera for a while, working with some of my team from Simshar, including make-up artist Jackie Grima. “It’s only nine months since the issue but it’s been quite a journey. Simshar had its premiere and it’s been accepted into the running for the shortlist of nominees for an Oscar. Although we’re very far from a prize, we’re still thrilled! I was also recently signed by top Hollywood management company Management 360, while Simshar will be back at the Embassy Cinema for a second time for two weeks in January.” Issue

“I was very excited about the whole Style shoot, and I loved every minute of it, including watching everything from the jewellery to the location come together through the pictures.

“With my cover being only two issues ago, my main concerns have been the Junior Eurovision with Federica and Gaia, and the Malta Eurovision with Amber and Christabelle. Now that Amber’s won, it’s the actual Eurovision that’s on my mind. I’m still hoping to get married soon, and my son, Beppe, has since started school. It’s all pretty exciting, really!”
