Weeks has described herself as a “haunting recycler”, who couldn’t stand seeing “all those cups go tossed in a normal trash can” creating consciousness. Not only that, she has no qualms about rummaging through the trash cans, when she’s on a movie set, just picking up and washing people’s dirty plastic cups while making her obvious point.

There is a six-year gap between Weeks and her older sister, and only a year gap with her younger brother. Speaking in one of his interviews with HELLO! Fashion Monthly, Weeks praised his “Oxford graduate” sister, saying it’s not such a bad thing to have a big brother as an example. She said there was no direct rivalry between them. Although she hinted that there was professional jealousy between them, since Honeysuckle “has a 100% success rate for everything,” she takes aim.
