  • Lizzie jumped out of a plane on a press trip in the name of research — because committing to the brief is kind of her thing.
  • She once interviewed Harry Styles about his favorite rom-coms and Andrew Garfield about arachnids — a past life as an entertainment journalist means she's no stranger to A-list press junkets or niche questioning.
  • She spent nearly a decade living in Vancouver and now holds dual citizenship with Canada and the UK — as do her two daughters (they're welcome).
