GMTV presenter – new face of Ultimo
Jenni Falconer is a person who people got used to see wearing serious clothing. And here she is in lingerie set for a new photoshoot for Ultimo!
The Scottish TV presenter shows off her London Marathon-honed body for new Spring/Summer Adore Moi collection. She follows previous Adore Moi faces Kimberley Stewart and Nell McAndrew and current Ultimo models Melanie Brown and Melinda Messenger.
The 33-year-old woman has a perfect shape which is the result of the whole-year training for the Marathon, which she ran in 3 hours 53 minutes, that is a pretty good achievement!
This wasn’t the first time Ultimo offered Jenni to face their campaign. When it happened for the first time she wasn’t sure she looked good enough for such an undertaking. But after the Marathon her body was ideal and she made up her mind at last.
She said:
I never thought I’d model lingerie but, when I met Michelle, she convinced me that I’d be great.
Michelle had spoken to me about doing it before but, because I’d been training for the marathon, I felt a little bit more confident. It’s quite a big deal getting your kit off.
I’ve talked about doing something like this for years but I’ve never quite had the nerve. Every woman has body issues, and I was too self-conscious to go through with it.’
Jenni’s parents were amazed to see the results of the shoot, especially her extremely honest mother who declared her daughter had ‘suddenly got boobs’.
Jenni commented this:
She always jokes that I’m quite flat-chested, so she was pleased that it does actually give me a shape.’
What was very pleasant for Jenni is that her long-term boyfriend, Cutting It actor James Midgley, liked the results very much.
She said:
James loved them and he knows all about my body worries.
He knew exactly what I was thinking about with each one and told me I looked beautiful.’
Ultimo owner Michelle said:
I’ve always admired Jenni’s fantastic figure and loved her approach to healthy living. She has fantastic curves and bags of confidence; Jenni was the perfect person to front the new campaign for Adore Moi by Ultimo and looks utterly fabulous in the new designs for this season.’
Jenni hosted GMTV’s Entertainment Today segment on Fridays from 2000 until it ended last July. Now she presents travel segments for the ITV breakfast show.
Besides, she hosts Channel 5 game show Wordplay and the National Lottery.
