Natalie Roser, aka @natalie_roser, has a dilemma. We’ve asked her to pick her favourite Friends character. “No, I can’t, I can’t, they’re all perfect!” As we sit with her in a cafe chatting about everything from classic TV to phobias (hers? Fish.), it’s easy to forget we’re meant to be interviewing the 28-year-old. She’s 100 percent the kind of girl you want as your bestie, but we need to get back to business. After all, the sought-after model and Instagram star has been busy. She spent the first five months of last year in LA, before returning to Australia (her home country) and relocating from Sydney to Melbourne in August – a move partly sparked by her relationship with actor Harley Bonner (the pair went #InstaPublic in early 2017). Then there are multiple campaigns for lingerie, swimwear and sporting brands as well as Natalie’s own fashion line, Roser The Label. Phew. No wonder she’s recently taken up coffee. But it isn’t just java keeping her going – gratitude, ambition, strength and staying in tune with her health fuel her too. Over to Natalie...

You seem like such a positive person – is that the reality?

“Yeah, I’ve always been a really happy person. I’ve got a pretty big smile though... It’s all teeth! Obviously I’ve had my fair share of ups and downs, but I just love life and really appreciate all the wonderful things that happen to me.”
