‘The female relationships I cultivated in our business, those women have been there for me. I’m actually going to get emotional. I’m sitting here today because of them. 

‘I’ve learnt so much about the power of female friendship and I’ve just learnt that I do have resilience, who I am outside of a partnership, and what my values are.’

Discussing the split with The Sunday Times, Isla said: ‘It’s the most difficult thing that I’ve been through and I’ve learnt so much about myself in the process.
