Miriam Margolyes / Radio Times. ”I'm saving up cash so that I can pay people to look after me and my partner. We don't have children, so I need to make sure I'm going to be looked after in the way that I've become accustomed." Miriam Margolyes / Radio Times. The Harry Potter star suffers from spinal stenosis, meaning the space inside her backbone is too small, which can put pressure on the spinal cord. Miriam recently revealed she had earned hundreds of thousands of pounds making videos for fans on the Cameo app. ”Since Covid I have made £365,000 through cameos and personalised videos.One day I will need carers. I want to be comfortable and I want them to be properly paid for. It is really because I want to make money though and they pay me to do it." Miriam Margolyes / This Morning.
