Alexandra began life as a single mother from South London, who strived for a better life for herself and her daughter. She started out working as an accounts executive and became very sucessful at this. Alexandra then took a brave step in early 2008 and entered the "Big Brother house". Her strong characteristics saw her not only as the star of the show, but due to the way the programme was edited, and the sensationalism that is required for the show, Alexandra was also portrayed as the villain! 

After leaving the show it soon became apparent she is a very intelligent girl, warm and friendly, and her ability to present on both TV and Radio was acknowledged shortly after this.
