It's a pretty amazing story in itself.

He lived 20 minutes away from me my entire life.

And I've never met him.

Pretty nuts.

Yeah.

When I was prepping for this interview, I just, I wasn't thinking of a lot of things, but I was like, make sure you tell everyone what a great mum mum was and what a great person she is.

Cause, uh,

The thing about mum and why I got so sad that her mental illness took her away from me was because that's someone I love.

I was just in love with my mum.

She was just so sweet and kind and thoughtful and funny.

And we just had a real rapport.

We had a bond from such a young age.

She was a mothercraft nurse in the late 70s.

So I had a mum who actually went to school to learn how to be a mum.

I mean, how lucky am I?

So I just remember her spoiling me and carrying me to bed or scratching my back or, you know, cooling my toast because I liked it cool.

Lots of little favours.

I wanted to watch the second instalment of Sesame Street in the afternoon, even though I'd watched it in the morning and mum wanted to watch The Sullivans.

But I remember putting my little foot down and getting my way.

So she's very kind.
