She advised The Sun’s journal Fabulous: “Me and my sister have never been close. There is a big age gap.

“When I was younger, I couldn’t understand it. I thought ‘Why is someone in my family not wanting a relationship with me? I don’t get it.’
“But now I’ve learned, especially speaking to other friends who don’t speak to their mum or dad, that family is complicated.
“Just because she’s a really high-end model, it doesn’t mean that it’s any different in our family.
“We just don’t see eye to eye on many things. I love her. She’s my sister, but we’re just not close. It is what it is.”
