TV presenter Zoe Salmon says the biggest money mistake she ever made was buying a Grade II-listed apartment in West London.
The former Miss Northern Ireland and Blue Peter presenter, 41, told DONNA FERGUSON it cost her £60,000 a year in service charges, plus thousands more in expensive renovations.
She is attempting to do hula-hoops for 500 minutes this month as part of the Duke of Edinburgh Awards Do It 4 Youth challenge.

What did your parents teach you about money?
To save wisely and to spend wisely. I was really fortunate growing up. My dad was the managing director of a large flooring firm in Northern Ireland and my mother was a stay-at-home mum to me and my three siblings. We were comfortable and lived in a beautiful four-bedroom detached house in Bangor, which is by the sea.
