She's a lingerie model famed for her show-stopping body and enviable cleavage.

Lingerie queen: Abbey Clancy has admitted that she never discovered her 'relationship with underwear' until her late teens, buying her first bra at 16
The 28-year-old was discovered in 2006, becoming a runner up in the second cycle of Britain's Next Top Model.
    But, speaking to Grazia this week, the model said she never wore a bra until she was 16.
    She said: 'I only got my first bra when I was about 16 - I was still in thermal vests up until then, I was completely flat chested. Then all of a sudden I grew these humongous breasts.'
    Now the face - and body - of lingerie brands Intimissimi and Ultimo, Peter Crouch's wife spends much of time wowing in just her underwear and has developed quite a penchant for the item.

    She continued: 'I've got a long relationship with underwear - I'd go so far as to say I've got a lingerie fetish. I think it's the first thing - the key thing - to make you feel good.'
    Abbey attended the launch of Intimissimi On Ice in Verona last Saturday, proud to parade her frame in a sheer dress, with just her underwear beneath.
    The mum-of-one is currently in Paris while her husband was scoring for Stoke against Newcastle.
    Having taken home the Strictly Come Dancing title in 2013, Abbey has set her sights on another BBC One reality TV crown.

    She has signed up to appear on the celebrity version of Great British Bake Off for Comic Relief, competing against fashionista Gok Wan and TV show host Jonathon Ross 
    Abbey finished filming for the bakery programme last week, telling The Mirror that she was hoping to win with her dumplings and cheese straws. 
    An insider for the newspaper said : 'Abbey was having a whale of a time [filming the show].
    'She impressed the judges with her cooking and had a real skill with the dough. She had a lot of laughs with Jonathan but it was Mary she took a real shine to.
    'She seemed to learn a lot from Mary in a short space of time.'

    Katherine Jenkins wows in wedding gown as she poses with new husband Andrew Levitas outside Hampton Court Palace 

    She always knows how to make an entrance and classical singer Katherine Jenkins was true to form as she stepped out in her wedding dress on Saturday. 
    After tying the knot with her beau Andrew Levitas, 37, the mezzo-soprano posed for a sensational snap with her man in the grounds of the iconic venue, Hampton Court Palace. 
    Wearing a traditional white gown which swept the floor, the stunning lady looked happy and content in the fairytale-inspired number, while her man wore a smart black suit and bow tie.

    Katherine wore her hair up, with an elegant veil pinned to the top and polished off the look with a pair of simple pearl drop earrings.
      According to The Mirror, the singer also got special permission from Buckingham Palace to fly the Welsh Dragon flag over the historic building.
      She announced her engagement to American artist and filmaker Andrew Levitas after just six months of dating.
      The singer tweeted: 'Thank you for all your love & support. It's already been such a special day & wanted to share my happiness with you xxx'.

      On Friday, it was revealed that the pair would be getting married in a lavish ceremony at Hampton Court in London, less than a year after they met.
      Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, a source said: 'Katherine and Andrew are tying the knot on Saturday at Hampton Court Palace. 
      'They've been coy about the details surrounding the wedding and were keen to keep it under wraps.'

      'They're a lovely couple and no doubt the wedding will be a wonderful day for all involved.'
      The revelation comes after the 34-year-old claimed she hadn't set a date during an exclusive chat with MailOnline at V Festival's Louder Lounge.

      Speaking at Hylands Park, Chelmsford, Katherine said: 'The wedding plans are coming along. We're getting there.'
      Asked if the couple had decided on a date and venue for their big day, she responded: 'Not yet, but we'll get there.'
      The pair met when they were both working in New York and began dating in October, shortly after she split from Prince Harry’s close friend Adam Bidwell.
      Andrew joined Katherine as she collected her OBE from Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace earlier this year.
      The operatic star was previously engaged to former Blue Peter presenter Gethin Jones, who proposed in 2011 - but the couple split later that year.
      Gethin has now moved on and has enjoyed a string of dates with former TOWIE star Lucy Mecklenburgh. 
      Happy couple: Katherine announced her engagement to Andrew, a professor at the prestigious New York University and a distinguished artist, in April after a whirlwind six-month romance

      The pair were pictured enjoying a trip to the cinema last week, ahead of Katherine's nuptials. 
      The singer has since said she is teaching herself about Judaism to bring herself even closer to her man ahead of their big day. 
      She recently said in an interview with the Mail: 'I’ve spent my life up until 18 attending church regularly and that will always be my background and I will always really appreciate that in my life going forward as well.
      'But I think it is very interesting to learn about another faith and to respect that, and to understand it. It’s a learning thing.
      'When you do religious studies at school you learn about other people. I really enjoy learning about all the different kinds of religion and what the main parts of each are. This is a side of my partner, so of course I’m going to learn about that.'

      Olympian Denise Lewis models Sportswear that’s fit for every day!

      As gymwear sales soar, designs are becoming ever more sophisticated. Here, Olympian Denise Lewis tries...Sportswear that’s fit for every day!

      • Tracksuits are unflattering and Denise still wants to look presentable
      • She always keeps an eye out for functional, transitional sportswear 
      • There is a sportswear explosion on the High Street 
      • Luxury website Net-a-porter launched Net-a-sporter this year 
      • The trick is to buy items that don’t look like PE kit  
      Despite being an Olympic gold medalist, TV presenter and fitness fan, I don’t want to always look like I’ve just jumped off the cross trainer (even if I have). Tracksuits are far from flattering and, as a busy mother-of-three, I still want to look presentable as I dash from workouts to the school run, a meeting, or the supermarket.
      For years, I carried bulky bags full of training kit but, nowadays, I like to travel light, so I always keep an eye out for functional, transitional sportswear that looks stylish at both a ‘body pump’ class and the school gates.
      Luckily, we’re seeing something of a sportswear explosion on the High Street. Fuelled by the popularity of yoga and Pilates, gym kits are having a major makeover. Never before has workout gear looked so unlike the scratchy tracksuits I wore as a young athlete in the early Nineties.
      Luxury website Net-a-porter launched Net-a-sporter this year, selling designer tank tops, leotards and even tennis skirts. And since sportswear makes up 27 per cent of the £26 billion British fashion industry, jogging bottoms have never been hotter.
      But the trick is to buy items that don’t look like PE kit, so they can be worn to the gym and out for dinner. To prove how easily it can be done, I put some of the most versatile sportswear available through its paces.
      PRINT LEGGINGS
      I was looking forward to getting these on as I love the quirky print. Once I did, I was less impressed. Too baggy for workouts but not tapered enough to make them flattering, they hover in no man’s land. I personally wouldn’t buy them. 2/5

      Grey suede court shoe, £69, houseoffraser.co.uk

        SPORTS JUMPER 
        Gap does a brilliant, affordable sports range called GapFit that I buy loads from and mix with everyday staples like jeans. I’d live in this jumper. It’s made from light fabric, so you can pull it on after a gym session without overheating. It’s not branded so it would work for formal events, glammed up with heels and smart trousers. 5/5

        Red trousers, £49, jaeger.co.uk
        Leopard print court shoes, £130, and clutch bag, £85, duoboots.com
        BALLET LEOTARD
        There’s not much room to hide in this leotard. I preferred to pin the low V-neck, but for the ladies who dare, I say go for it, though you could wear a vest underneath for modesty. You have to be quite self-assured to wear something this skintight. Shoulder ruching adds structure and the shape is elegant and glamorous. No one would have a clue it’s sportswear — it’s certainly more for parties than Pilates. 3/5

        Navy sandals, £110, ninewest.co.uk
        YOGA BOTTOMS 
        I tend to do high-intensity workouts where I push myself and sweat a lot. These might be problematic as the fabric is far from breathable — I’d have to stick to gentler yoga. Having said that, I love the shape. They are form-fitting, but not tight, and well-tapered, so show off my ankles. The fabric’s sheen elevates them from traditional jogging bottoms and, worn with a sparkly jacket, they look like tuxedo-style trousers. I’d wear these to a formal event. 3.5/5

        SLEEVELESS TANK TOP
        I love this pattern, it’s vampy, fits like a dream and I could wear it with jeans or running leggings. The high, wide back means you can wear a bra without the straps showing. As an athlete sponsored by Adidas, I was often sent lovely things — and Stella McCartney for Adidas is a match made in heaven. 4/5

        HAREM TROUSERS
        At first I was sceptical. The baggy crotch and three-quarter length gave a strange shape and the colours looked too psychedelic to carry off anywhere but a dance studio. How wrong I was. Teamed with a tailored blazer and plain white top the trousers were transformed. Modern, elegant and fun. 3.5/5
