Speaking about her exit, Millie said: “I have no responsibilities.
“I don’t have kids, I don’t have a mortgage to pay or anything like that, I’m still grateful to be living at home.
“So, I thought I’m just going to see what else the world has.
“If it does, it does – that would be quite good, wouldn’t it?
“I just thought I might as well see what happens while I’m still young.”
