Olympic champion

Valerie spoke to the Herald about the process of getting the Barbie created...

"I'm six foot four [1.9m], I'm a big Pacific Island woman. Never in my mind would I have thought something like this would be possible," she said.

"To have them choose me was surprising but also very exciting it's an amazing campaign and I'm really honoured to be a part of it."

"They got all the details right," Valerie continued.

Somali nationals are among those banned from travelling to the US under the executive order issued on Friday.

That had applied to Farah, who was born in Somalia, until the announcement by the UK Foreign Office late on Sunday.

Farah, 33, called Trump's policy "divisive and discriminatory".

Trump's executive order halted the entire US refugee programme and also instituted a 90-day travel ban for nationals from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.

While Dancing With the Stars has been interested in having Simone Biles as one of its season 23 contestants, the Olympic champion is setting the record straight, saying her busy schedule could prevent her from joining the ABC reality competition.
