elcome to Metro. co. uk‘s The Big Questions, where we ask, well, the big questions (and the smaller ones too) and this week, we’re diving deep with Mollie King. Mollie is a total all-rounder, having found success in everything from music to presenting and podcasting.

The band have been on hiatus since 2014, and while Mollie recently revealed she would ‘never say never’ to a reunion, the star currently has a chock-a-block work schedule.
On top of everything, the star is also preparing to welcome her first child with fiancé Stuart Broad. ‘Not really, no! I mean, I wouldn’t really classify myself as somebody that’s famous. I think that I’m fortunate that when people do come up to me, they tend to be really lovely.
