What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine you may wish to share?
Lady Violet Manners:
Lockdown was a blessing for helping me find and become a CLASS fanatic. A friend introduced me to “The Class by Taryn Toomey” and I haven’t stopped since April. I really have to move my body every day so if I’m short of time I’ll do a Class Focus for 15/20 minutes but if I have plenty of time I’ll get on the mat for an hour, plug in, move, sweat, shout and dance to The Class. I’ve also recently got back into running with a friend which I forgot is totally free & so so much fun!

Do you take some special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Lady Violet Manners:
No, I can’t diet and from everything I’ve read and understood over the years I think diet is rarely sustainable and the results often short lived. I love eating food that’s nourishing and works with my body. I am gluten and diary free as of a few years ago.
I do have cheat days with both of these (my intolerances aren’t severe) but generally I stick to this and exercise regularly I usually can keep on top of my weight. Over the years my weight has fluctuated quite heavily, In LA last year I put on a lot of weight which was tough, I was eating everything that I shouldn’t and the effect was crazy but those moments in my life, where I feel disconnected from my body and like it’s working against me, make me all the more appreciative of this year and my body working with me again.

You have glowing skin and gorgeous hair. Share with us your hair care and skincare routine.
Lady Violet Manners:
Oh that’s very kind. I really haven’t always – In fact I use to suffer with cystic acne and hair loss between the ages of 18-25 my skin really crippled my confidence. I use to spend hours agonising over how best to cover the new spots that appeared the night before. It was a really mentally challenging time, especially when you’re going to lovely parties with beautiful girlfriends who have glistening skin.
Again now I’ve got better, it has taken me years to get my skin and hair right. I’ve seen healers, Harley street specialists; you name it, none of them worked but the work of Dr Sarah Myhill who’s now a retired doctor and specialist in thyroid. Two summers ago when my hair loss was terrible and skin even worse, she put me on the simplest solution, a natural thyroid supplement and pure vitamin c – Ascorbic acid and I’ve not looked back.
After years of dead end appointments, and countless encounters with ‘specialists’ and blood tests etc., good old fashioned Vitamin C is now my absolute must have. I’ve also started taking JSHealth vitamins for digestions and they’re incredible, an Australian Vitamin brand.

Lady Violet Manners:
It was a buck list box ticked. I loved the previous editor Kate Reardon and my body was looking amazing and I got to wear Miu Miu and Prada swimsuits with beautiful jewellery. I was in any 24 year old girl’s paradise.
