Simone Ashley reveals she's 'defying the social expectations' women face to settle down in their 30s - after declaring she's in her 'single era' amid split from boyfriend of three years


Simone Ashley has revealed she's 'defying the social' expectations' of women feeling pressured to settle down and marry once they hit their 30s.

On the importance of demonstrating a realistic and nuanced portrayal of British-Indian family life of which films like Bend It Like Beckham is praised for, she continued: 'I wanted to make sure that the culture was celebrated and any stereotypes were defied or twisted, so there’s a surprise for the audience.' And it appears that the actress is channelling her recent heartbreak into music for her forthcoming debut pop album following her split from Constantin, the boss of a company that organises ice races in Austria. Elsewhere, earlier this month, Simone confirmed her relationship status to People as she embraced single life, defining her 'single era as a time that I don't wanna waste away.'
