According to the mother of three, appearing on the Disney hit was "a huge joy" because of her young daughters Sam, Lola and Eloise.

"I brought my girls to work and they get to watch everyone, and they're so star stuck seeing everyone," she laughs. "So for me, personally, just to be here with my family, and [to] let them see everyone, has been a huge joy."
