“We are putting our lives at risk but for a very good cause.

After first shift on the job, Penny admitted that she was both “excited and terrified” at the same time.
The former model said her husband had been very supportive.
“Rod is still the rock star I met but he’s seen a lot of change in myself.
“From turning into a mother of two and then changing career to be a police officer.
“I couldn’t have gone ahead with that unless I had his support,” she said
