And now? When she looks in the mirror, what does she see? "Well, I'm shocked. Sometimes, you're passing a store, and you see this person in the window, and you think: who is that? Oh, it's me. But I've also realised that ageing is a bit like what being pregnant must be like, by which I mean that your body knows how to do something that you don't know how to do – and it's quite interesting. Your body loses what it needs to support someone else, and it keeps what it needs to support you. That's very smart. Just watching the process is somehow fascinating."
