She shot to fame in the ‘Hello Boys’ Wonderbra ad campaign, but now Eva Herzigova thinks it’s pink that makes the boys wink.
The former blonde bombshell has undergone a dramatic transformation, explaining: ‘For a change, short and pink!’
Czech-born Herzigova (48), has had three children, including one with her Italian fiance, Gregorio Marziaj. She is currently recovering from long Covid.
‘I’m back to myself,’ she says. ‘I still get moments of brain fog and fatigue but I’m feeling so much better.’

Carrie on elephant saving! Mrs Bojo refuses to take maternity leave
Boris Johnson used his keynote speech at this year’s Tory Party conference to urge people to return to their offices this autumn. Carrie Johnson, Boris’ wife, has made it clear that she is dedicated to hard work.
I hear she’s planning to take no maternity leave after she gives birth to her second child, which is due around Christmas.
Carrie is 33 years old and heads communications at the Aspinall Foundation. They run wildlife parks in Kent, release zoo animals into the wild, as well as other charitable organizations.

She’s been working with her boss, the casino and safari park heir Damian Aspinall, on negotiations with the Kenyan government about ambitious plans to send a herd of elephants to Africa next year.
‘She is completely dedicated to releasing these elephants in the wild and wants to be fully involved in the process,’ one of her friends tells me.
‘Carrie is a hard worker and will be able to juggle it with having a newborn — she’s already been working while looking after 18-month-old Wilf and a very spirited Jack Russell, Dilyn.’
Carrie manages communications for Aspinall Foundation. They run wildlife parks in Kent. Zoo animals are released back into nature.
It would be a highly unusual move, as women are legally allowed to take up to a year’s maternity leave, with up to 39 weeks paid by their employer.
As a consequence, Aspinall Foundation does not advertise for maternity insurance for the position.
The baby will be Boris’s seventh child by three mothers. With his second wife Marina Wheeler, a barrister, he has four adult children. He also has a daughter with Helen Macintyre (an extra-marital relationship).
Carrie has a lot to do with elephants. The project — a world-first — involves building bespoke crates for the herd, which weighs 25 tonnes.
After the ceremony, the elephants will be transferred by a Boeing 747 from Howletts Wild Animal Park to Kenya. This is more than 4000 miles.
The Last Duel, starring big-name stars Matt Damon (Ben Affleck), and Jodie Komer, was directed by Sir Ridley Scott. Despite being praised by critics, the movie went unnoticed at the box-office. The problem isn’t just with Sir Ridley Scott, but also with young cinemagoers.
‘It boils down to audiences who are brought up on f***ing cellphones — the millennials don’t ever want to be taught anything unless [they’re] told it on a cellphone,’ wails Sir Ridley, 83, who directed classics such as Gladiator. ‘We’re dealing with it now with Facebook. It has given the wrong kind of confidence to this latest generation.’
Huntsman’s golden girl Take a look at these deals ‘un-PC’ art
Princess Michael of Kent felt the need to apologise after wearing a blackamoor brooch to a banquet attended by Meghan Markle, while august institutions such as the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge have removed similarly ‘offensive’ figures after complaints.
Robin Smith-Ryland is not one to be influenced by political correctness. Lorena Smith-Ryland, his fourth wife posted online this photo of blackamoor statues placed on pedestals in Sherbourne Park. This estate is 2,000 acres and was home to Princess Margaret.
Curiously, when I ring Lorena, 54, a Peruvian widow who owns Britain’s last gold refinery, she’s reluctant to discuss their controversial artworks.

‘I don’t want to talk about it,’ she tells me. ‘It’s private and it’s nobody’s business.’
Robin, 68, is said to have served as one of the inspirations for Rupert Campbell-Black, the hero of Jilly Cooper’s bonkbuster novel Riders.
He is also the former joint master of Prince Charles’s one-time favourite hunt, the Quorn.
He doesn’t usually give a fig for convention, once even hosting a swingers’ gathering at Sherbourne Park that he complained was too ‘tame’.
Prince Charles, who’s known for his extravagance, is advertising for not one but two cooks for him and Camilla. On the royal website, they have posted job ads for chef de partie or sous-chef.
Applicants must be ‘tactful and courteous with the ability to maintain confidentiality and discretion at all times’, the ad warns.
They are also expected to have a ‘good understanding of organic produce and ethos, or an interest to learn more’.
Pop Princess Dua open her Little Black Book
Lifestyle blogs helped Meghan Markle attract Prince Harry’s attention and turned Oscar-winner Gwyneth Paltrow into a Goop entrepreneur.
Dua Lipa is now a pop princess and hopes to become a global brand through her newsletter Service95. This newsletter will provide fans with access to the little black book that Dua Lipa has compiled of travel tips, recommendations for food and other insider information.
Dua, 26, says: ‘I’ve dreamed of this for so long. I’ve always compulsively made lists of places to eat and stay.’

Amanda Eliasch, the socialite with more than half the intelligence of any other is perhaps Amanda Eliasch. The ex-wife of sportswear tycoon Johan Eliasch shared an image of a yellow Star of David emblazoned with the words ‘Not Vaccinated’ with friends online.
This is an echo of Nazi Germany’s badges for Jews.
‘To equate people who don’t wish to be vaccinated with people who were incarcerated and gassed to death is reprehensible,’ rock singer Shirley Manson scolded.
Eliasch, 61, declines to apologise, telling me: ‘I haven’t got a comment to make.’
