"Surprisingly, I had to convince them to come this year, because they thought the reason I won was because they weren't here.
"I'm glad we proved that wrong."
"I owe everything to you. You are the most wonderful parents and if I can be half the parent to Poppy as you are to me, I know I'll have done a good job."
