The time is 6.30am, and Charlotte Church is in the garden in a pair of stripey blue PJ bottoms and a strappy vest top, her arms high above her head as she beats a rhythm on the sky, her bare toes digging into the dewy grass. On the singer’s head, a pair of headphones glow red in the early morning light, as she rocks out to a specially curated playlist of ambient dance tracks.

“It’s the best way to start the day,” she beams. “Once a week I dance hard for an hour, sometimes an hour and a half. Ask me to do an hour of cardio in the morning and I’d say, ‘absolutely no way on earth, it’s not happening’, but you add music, amazing playlists and dancing and it works.
