Kiwi sisters reveal 'HARRYS TYLES CHANGED OUR LIVES!'

When most people get hooked on a singing star, they might buy a magazine for the latest gossip or follow them on social media, but for sisters Nikki Perry and Kirsty Roby, their love of Harry Styles went beyond fun facts and Instagram – it led them to write their first book!

With their fan-fiction novel How To Marry Harry on shelves on Tuesday, the Tauranga-born pair say the One Direction singing sensation has inspired them in more ways than one.

“Harry’s not just a great musician – he’s all about spreading the message that you can do anything you set your mind to, no matter what your age,” Kirsty, 48, tells Woman’s Day. “It sounds clichéd, but he’s changed our lives – and I love his tattoos!”

While Harry’s lush locks were what first caught Nikki’s eye, she says the hit-making heartthrob is known for his kindness. “He’s a very humble person,” says the mum-of-three, 54. “His values are about being inclusive and he’s not afraid to make fun of himself.”

It was during the first nationwide lockdown that the sisters got hooked on Harry’s catchy hits. Battling boredom and in need of a new project, they decided to put their writing skills to use and their shared love of the singer was the perfect way to get started.
