Engaged Jesinta Campbell discusses her wedding with footballer Buddy Franklin and tells The Weekly about her admiration of Richard Branson in behind the scenes footage of the Let’s Talk series.

The 23-year-old model and TV presenter would like to wed the Sydney Swans star on Richard Branson’s island in the Carribbean.

“I could get married on Necker Island actually. That would be great. So [there would be] two reasons to have dinner with Richard Branson,” says Campbell, laughing.

And the second reason – The Weekly assume – would be to get professional advice from the English businessman over a meal.

“I’ve always really admired Richard Branson’s entrepreneurial skills. I read a book of his growing up… he was really cool and funky and he had this really fun take on business. And I think that’s really important not to take business too seriously, or yourself,” adds Campbell.

The ability to take everything in a light-hearted stride plays into the 23-year-old’s thoughts on success as she defines it by “waking up every morning with a smile on my face.”

“You’re not going to enjoy every single day but I think if you can be excited about what the day is going to bring and be happy about where you are in life, I think that’s success,” she tells The Weekly.
