On my 14th birthday, I got the news that my favourite riding school horse, Shelegro, was mine. She’d been given to the centre five months earlier and had a birth defect in her back legs. Despite this, she’s never been lame in the time I’ve had her and we’ve even had a go at eventing, which we adored. We’ve done some modelling, too, and she loved the camera! I owe her so much and she has definitely defied everyone’s expectations.
