Martine McCutcheon: I feel sexier than ever

Martine McCutcheon feels sexier than ever.

The 44-year-old star has revealed she feels more sexy and more confident in herself than ever before.

Martine shared: "I’m feeling so much more fulfilled, confident and sexy than I ever did in my twenties.

"What’s amazing is looking at people like Jennifer Lopez and Helen Mirren, who are ageing and yet their careers are still going strong. They’ve got this inner glow.

"People always thought I was really confident, but it was a good act. Genuine confidence took time for me."

Martine has enjoyed success as an actress and as a singer, but she's now planning to relaunch herself as a TV presenter.

She told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "I feel so grateful to be getting these opportunities in an industry that can be disposable and ruthless, especially as a woman who’s going to be 45 next month."

Martine has recently signed up with the Elite model agency, which has also represented the likes of Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Gisele Bundchen, and she thinks TV presenting represents a "natural progression" for her.

The London-born star explained: "Show-business is tough. I see so many people come and go, so for employers to still be asking me to do things after I took time away is brilliant.

"I was really flattered. I’ve loved Elite model agency since I was a teenager. If you’d told my 14-year-old self that they’d sign me one day I’d have been over the moon. I’m hoping this will be a new phase and unexpected chapter in my life.

"Presenting feels like a natural progression for me. It’s taken me a while to be comfortable as myself in front of the camera. I’ve had amazing production companies approach me for projects that I’m looking at doing.

"A lot of people on my social media say they want to see more of me on TV screens, so I’m excited to see what the next step will be. I’m enjoying becoming more of a businesswoman and developing a lifestyle brand."
