She wrote: "My mum took the photos for me, even though she didn't know how to use my camera properly. Still, they were nice photos anyway. The message was told to me by my mum, just after receiving bad exam results."

Unsurprisingly she was once approached by a modelling agency. The subject, that is, not her mum.
