Educated at a local comprehensive, she worked as a magician's assistant before studying drama at the Victoryland Theatre School and philosophy at Reading University. Her appointment to international development secretary in 2017 was welcomed by aid charities, who said she would be able to draw on her experience working in hospitals and orphanages in Romania as a student after the 1989 revolution.Ms Mordaunt failed in her first attempt at the Portsmouth North seat in 2005, but overturned Labour's majority to enter Parliament in 2010 and increased her share of the vote in each of the following polls.
