Personal Life

In September 2008 Bailey revealed her traumatic ordeal over her battle with anorexia nervosa in an interview with Now magazine: "I went through a minor, but still not very good, anorexic stage and actually got down to less than 40 kg"

Bailey later went for therapy and took up meditation after her family and friends expressed concerns about her health.

In the SBS series Go Back to Where You Came From in August 2012 she surprised her fellow participants by revealing that while modelling and acting in Sydney she had a Muslim Lebanese-Australian partner for 8 years and wore a hijab. "She was a bikini model by day who read the Koran by night. She fasted during Ramadan and even, on occasion, wore a burqa."
