“Can see the resonance, right? I'm grateful to, as I said, the biggest thing for me is never to think that I've had it any worse than anyone else because I talk about it. It's knowing that I'm giving someone space that may not be able to find that for themselves to... Grieve or to feel something that they need to feel”

“All my dreams personally and professionally. Able to happen with people by my side, and I don't have to do everything by myself. I think that's the biggest thing for me I'm a very independent I can do it. I don't need help. I don't need support person. That's bullshit. Like I need people around me that. Want to do what I want to do, and I enjoy being a team player. And I don't think that was clear to me a year ago.”

“I mean, yeah, I mean, right now I'm in the process of like. Trying to create a one woman show Which is what Jamal was helping me with? Which is a combination of the things that I love the most, which is therapy and talking and honesty and emotions and standing in the middle of them and feeling the storm and the joy and the sunshine and the rain and all of it. Singing and singing, when I mean singing, singing as hard as I can, as loud and high and as soft and as low and everything as I can, and making people laugh. And combining those three things. Don't know what it looks like. Have an idea, but you know, life does this. And preparing my body to. Try again to Be a parent, you know, at some point in the next few years, for sure. Thank you.

“Just been mates. The amount of times I've been in relationships with my friends that I've just gone to dinner with. The amount of times that people have said I've been pregnant, little do they know. Obviously now it doesn't happen. And I think if the press did say that now, I think that I would probably feel confident to say something because I see them do it to so many women without knowing what they're internally going through. I constantly ride the line between not giving a fuck and wanting to protect it to every little part of me. Would be lying if I didn't say that what other people Think or say, or constantly believe Don't bother me”

“And I may never know. Like, I just feel like love is a constant moving experience. And I think that when you meet new people, you always want to dumb down what you've experienced because you don't want to make them feel bad. But the truth is, all we're ever doing is going, is this love? Do you want to be with me? Are we going to get married? Can we live together? Like, would you take a bullet for me? Do I really want to meet your parents? It's a constant Yeah, it's a lot. And I think that I've been in relationships where The process of me working out if it's what I want or not, what I want, the press are giving the narrative that it's exactly what I want and it is going to happen and it's this and it's that. And I'm like, we may never have been official We were, or we may have been engaged, or we may have like.”

“Yeah, exactly. And it wasn't me going like. Going to get married, we're going to do this. It was just like this is what it is, this is who it is, and piss off. And then they did piss off to some degree, you know, it was like, okay, and then the picture they posted of me and I laughed about it. I looked like an old man that owned a boat that was wearing a wig. Like it was so bad. And I was just like, really guys, this is the picture you're going to use of both of us. And like, it was just terrible. But there's that thin line of, Fuck everybody. I'm gonna live the life I want to live and I'm gonna experience love like my mum says to me falling in love as many times as you can it will stick or it won't”

“Someone in the pandemic and who wasn't famous, and I was very protective of that, when then when we did get seen, I was like, I don't want to talk about it. Like, and we were together for like dating for maybe a month. And then obviously it was put out everywhere on this one picture. And I was like, you know, my frustration of like... The way they worded all of it, and I just was like, no, this isn't what it is. Like, if you want to, I don't, I hate that the press can control the narrative. I hate that. But I also get it, but it doesn't mean that you sometimes don't just go. Know”

“You can't control, and there's a lot of things in this life that we ask for, and then there's some things that we don't, but happen anyway. And so that whole experience definitely made me go, I just need more privacy and I need to have something that. Always me talking about it and being open because even if people really understand it, everyone just everybody slows down at the car crash. Very rarely do people get out and help. And now people don't just slow down. Now people slow down and they film, they zoom in, they comment, they send to somebody else, they will pretend something else happened that was there, that wasn't, like, that's what it is now, right? So then when I met.”

“Yeah, and he's an incredible father and was going through a really personal, traumatic time. And it was just a lot of... Emotional collisions, you know, of like both of our lives at the same time. And we got on really well. But again, that same thing is that when you're famous, you can go for dinner on a date. Like how many dates have you been on where you would never see them again? But you get photographed and you're both famous, and they put it on the internet and go, exclusive. And you're like, and that wasn't what happened, but, you know, we got seen and it kind of propelled into something probably more than maybe it was also because of what was going on in his own life. And then there was this comparison. And it was just, it was so many things that I always say that there's a lot of things that fame control.”

“No, it wasn't even that. That was the one before the last one. It was that I was frustrated that you have to almost. Fame is weird because even though people go personally not to post or not to speak or not to be seen, you can't live a normal relationship if you don't aren't seen. So even if I don't post a relationship. These people will hide and hide in bushes until they get a picture and then you don't want them to have the control of what they say it is.”

“Trust wholeheartedly. But I don't need that many. And I'm grateful that I even have one because some people don't even have one And they're the people that I cry for too because I think about how lonely they must be. Look at my life. I'm so lucky and so grateful for everything I have. And I know that we've sat and spoken at probably the most worst parts of my life, like the most worst moments, but...

“Probably something I'm working on all the time is that I do let people in. I definitely give people... More than they give me Most of the time, you know, but I also think that's my nature. Like I'm a hostess. I'm a very caregiver. I like to cook and entertain and like care for people and look after people. I think there's a thin line of people presuming that I have someone else that's going to do that for me. And then also people that isn't just that that's not their love language. But also, I'm very guarded, and I think that definitely in the last few years I've got way more clothes in I wouldn't say that I have a fear of I'm funny about people letting people in. I think I let people in, but maybe not to the real, real me. There's only a few people that really know. How much my brain is always working.”

Think he realized how special he was to me. Which I hate And I wish I could have protected him from himself like he protected me from myself. That hurts me the most. I know he would want me to live my life as hard as I could.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Or we'd just laugh because we'd be like, if someone said something stupid, he'd be like, wow. And it was just like he just got me, you know, and it's very hard to find people like that. And I do believe that you're right when you said about expectation. I think that when you've experienced I've had a handful of people in my career that Loved me and seen me and heard me and felt me and understood me and respected me and elevated me. Consistently that are still here with me or aren't anymore for whatever reasons whether they've moved on or they've passed away I think it's hard that when you've experienced that Want anything. It's weird, like I feel sometimes feel safer. Talking to Dave, this probably makes me sound crazy at an event and imagining him there than I do with another security guard.”

“Oh my god, he was the biggest Jokar, the biggest clown. He would send me shit while I was sitting in the voicair to try and make me laugh. And like, we just had all these jokes, and we lived in this house in Australia together. It was whale season So we would watch whales, like we would sit and have dinner and then we would sit when we bought binoculars and we would sit and watch the scene, see if we could find Wales. And so it became this thing that every time we'd be in the middle of a conversation, we'd be like, whale, and then we'd all run to the window. So it became that thing for years that like if there was an awkward moment or one of us wanted to leave somewhere, we would say, whale. Was like our code theme. Random”

“Things that those people gave me in my life. Things that I know I have to find in myself. My anxiety comes a lot from my fear of not being safe. And Dave gave me that. And Jamal always gave me self belief, which is like my biggest anxieties are self-belief and my fear. And so losing those two people in my life. And then obviously the baby was just such a huge part of who I want to be in my life and what I want to give to my children one day. I think that's why the grief is so present right now because I'm in the process of trying to give myself the things that they gave me. Yeah, the very special guys. And Dave was. hard work. Hard work. Hilarious Took no bullshit. And have my back 100%. And I've not had anyone like that since.”

“Their own life and their own group of friends that they hang out with, like that they talk to and that they do the things that they enjoy. And like, I don't want my life to become your life or to feel like we have to be intertwined all the time. Like women have grown up with blogs and magazines and books and this, that and the other. And that's one of the things I loved about you. And this is why I said yes to talking to you because. Men don't talk enough about how they feel. Point blank, you know Almost raised to go be respectful to women, you know, or not, it's not be respectful to yourself, you know.

And it just It was just the saddest thing, but at the same time. I knew that the reason it happened was because I wasn't supposed to do it alone. I stand by that now.

Just always been something that I can't even explain. People go like, you know, do you want to be a mom? It's just something that I think that you gravitate towards or you kind of learn to gravitate towards. But I felt like I'd been given everything I've ever wanted and then someone had gone, but you can't have it. But it was still there. You know, I was still, and I would sing to it every night.

“Overwhelmed with like your whole life just kind of instantly changes. You feel like you're carrying the most precious cargo, even though it's the size of like a bean sprout. You're literally just like, and it's a secret, but it's, and I'm such an open person. And it was such a new experience for me to... Go through something. That so many people could relate to But not want to tell anyone, but want to tell everybody. But no, I shouldn't, just in case. But then it's like, but it's also something that so many people have gone through. So it wasn't like a, you know, and I was just like, what do I do? And then when I booked these shows. Obviously, I'd booked them. I think I'd booked them before I even knew.”

“The amount of women that are told that, and then they have children, you know, and a lot of it's mental, you know, and where our bodies are at. And obviously, when I was going through all that pain and discomfort was when my life was in complete, utter chaos with my career and my diet and everything, you know, like your mind, your body's so powerful. And as I've gotten older and my life, as I've kind of tranquilized, like been able to find tranquility and the chaos and, you know, like just my pain is so much better and I'm not on any medication anymore. And, you know, so when I fell pregnant, it wasn't, I know that I know that getting pregnant I don't think would be the issue for me. It would be staying pregnant. And so when I fell pregnant. I was”

I mean, the whole experience was so spiritual for me because obviously I'd been told it wasn't going to be easy for me to get children. And realistically, I'm still discovering that now I think that any woman can say that.”

“Archived it A moment of being human, I was just like You know what it was? It was a moment where I actually had it up and I wasn't in a space to keep posting, but I was tired of going back to my page and that being the thing that people saw because I wasn't in that space, but I wasn't in a...

“Demand more from myself and from other people in my career. You know, me and him had so many plans of projects that we were doing together, as I'm sure you guys were probably supposed to connect in some way. And I know that wherever I Supposed to receive from him. For those things, I have to find within myself. Because no one will ever be So, sorry, I'm so crying right now. Like, I'm such an emotional person and I really live from feeling. I'm not afraid anymore to be. Vulnerable, and I think that the first line of change with anything through grief or anything like that is talking about how you feel. And I think that I'm now in the next few months aware that I'm going to then start actioning the change that I'm speaking about within myself.”

“When I sang at his homecoming and everyone was like, how did you do that? I said, because I was singing to him. I was singing for him. It wasn't a performance. You know, I know that. Would have loved that I just hear him going, geez, you know, like come on, you wearing vegan shoes and that. But I think that the biggest thing that you learn when you lose someone so young that you love and admire so much is that life is too short to sit anywhere other than where you're supposed to be. If you're sitting at a table where you don't feel like you're being fed, even if you're bringing a plate of food Politely just leave, you know, and I know that he has inspired me to.”

“Being told that you're a great singer was enough, like it often wasn't, you know, and I would phone him and he would just remind me of, I mean, I met when I was 17, just remind me of the bigger picture and just his energy and... The fact that he talked himself into every room and then talked about everyone else. You felt his power when the world found out he had gone. Everybody was sad. Even people that didn't know him. Because Legacy that's been a word that's been used a lot with him Funny because The biggest legacy that I think he Businesses he started and things he invested in and platforms he created to elevate everyone else. It was the feeling that he gave people to me that was his legacy. That's why I miss the most.”

“Yeah, it's crazy how much time he made for everyone. I can't. He was like so special. And when someone passes, you always want to remind everybody of like, Good that they were, but he was In another league of I can't explain it. Like when I was standing. At his funeral and just looking around and the impact that he made so one-on-one with everyone he knew because he never said no. He always had the time. I know how much he wanted to live life and how Unfair, it feels that of all people. That could have happened to that it happened to him. I know that his passing has enabled Me to make the decisions that I'm making in my life right now and my career with more. Strength and belief in myself. Jamal was someone that I spoke to I didn't want to do this anymore when I didn't feel like.”
