‘I did always pray that I would meet a really cool partner, whether it was going to be male or female, that I was going to have somebody that was going to uplift me and support me and want me to shine and not want to take away from that, but want to shine as well in their own right.’

‘I found it in Joe, and I found it on the set of Jane,’ she added.
