Neve is a spokeswoman for the Tourette Syndrome Association (her younger brother Damian has the disease). Neve says, "Tourette Syndrome means a lot to me because my younger brother suffers from it. There's a great lack of awareness about what Tourette Syndrome is. People don't realize that despite having this condition, it is not necessarily debilitating. Tourette sufferers can and do lead very successful lives. It is a very complex condition, but people do cope with it amazingly well. Educating the public about Tourette Syndrome is very important to me."
Guilty Pleasure: Haagen Dazs Coffee Ice Cream
