As she prepares to tie the knot a second time, she shared: "I have my fingers firmly crossed for a positive outcome — I don't want another divorce."

Standing at 5’10”, Peggy turns heads whenever she enters a room. Over the years, the secret geek has earned the nickname "Picky Peggy" and “Peggy in the middle,” as she is always the centre of drama.
