She also spoke about why she tends to stay away from social media.

\"I don't use [Instagram] that much and, if I do, it's usually just work geared,\" she said. \"You can start to look at all these strangers and think you know them and there's no way that can encapsulate a whole person.\"

\"You're just seeing a version of them and you always have to keep that in mind,\" she added. \"It's just a picture. You don't know them. You don't know their past.\"

She said she prefers to spend her time \"watching an old film, reading a great book, spending time with friends and family,\" opposed to living online.

\"That is somebody else's version of me and I can't do anything about that,\" she added.
