In January she told her followers: "A morning walk really does clear the cobwebs in the mind and the muscles feel like they've been WD 40'D afterwards!"

Martine is often asked about her "secret" to her recent weight loss but the star told HELLO! it's not something she wants to talk about publicly.
She explained: "Because you know what? I think because it's the only thing that makes a headline," she told HELLO! "That makes me sad - I think that we are slowly getting better but women are so much more than that. Slowly women are being braver and not standing for being defined by it."
