“Otherwise, just competing with my niece and nephew everyday - running and jumping in the ocean. My niece🐟, she just wants to do cannonball all of the time.
“I ate so much food. My weight has to be around 73, 74 kilos and I was almost 77 kilos on Saturday, I was like ‘Oh God!, so I had to go on an extཧreme diet these past days.”
