She has said:
I’ve got quite a lot of family I’ve never really met before. I’ve got a large family. I’m half-Jamaican, half-Maltese, both sides are humongous. Supposedly, Eyre is in my family tree somewhere. But my nana actually died before she could tell me where. It’s something I’ve always known about, but not really known where [it’s] from.
She has also said:
I’m just not Scottish. My grandad lives in Scotland so that could be why but he’s not Scottish either. I wouldn’t call it a nasty rumour but I want people to know that it’s not that I’m not proud to be Scottish, it’s just not true.

Her eyes aren’t hazel. There isn’t a picture or video of her with hazel eyes, they are usually light to dark brown.
correction; Her eyes are hazel and hazel eyes are just a light brown!
Hazel eyes are the most misunderstood eye color, true hazel eyes are eyes that are a light golden brown colour resembling that of a hazelnut (hence the word hazel), they can contain minimal green when observed in good lighting however green is by no means a requirement. There is a modern North American misconception that hazel eyes are any eye that’s green and brown or multi-coloured that appears to shift in colour (blue, grey or green with brown around the pupil) however this does not make sense due to a hazelnut not presenting any green, blue or grey whatsoever. In Europe (the origin of light eyes and hazelnuts) the true/original meaning is still used; hazel eyes = eyes that resemble the colour of a hazelnut.
