The little chatterbox tells New Idea she can’t wait for the big day – and neither can her adoptive mum, charity worker Moira Kelly, 48, who’ll be waiting at the gates of the same inner-city school where her own mum was a student, savouring every moment of a miracle milestone she once only dreamt about.
