Rosie, who studied journalism at Edinburgh Napier University, told The Tab: ‘I don’t really see my mum as an inspiration. I mean, she’s not the reason why I’m studying journalism.
‘My dad is a cameraman, that’s how my parents met actually, whilst my uncle is in advertising and granddad worked in the television industry too. So I guess it’s in the family.
