'Though to ensure that my day be absolutely relaxed, I am going to be disconnecting myself from social media and the outside world to just be with myself and my family,' she added.

Speaking about her love for cooking, Erica had said earlier, 'I have always loved cooking for myself and everyone at home too, but due to my packed schedule in the last 1 year, I haven't really gotten a chance to step into the kitchen. But now with some free time in hand and having to do all the work for myself, I decided to start cooking again. Cooking for me is therapeutic.'
