Since then the presenter has been through a hell of a lot - she’s had kids, got a divorce, lost her hair and then got it back again. And now that she’s approaching the ripe old age of 40 (next year that is) Gail has decided to get her bum out again, this time for Now magazine.
In this week’s edition of the magazine (on sale today) Gail proudly recreates the pose she assumed back in 1999 for FHM, saying:
"I finally feel really happy in my skin, so I thought: 'Why not?' I've got a lovely boyfriend who likes me whatever I look like and my daughter Honey is at an age where she just thinks it's funny that Mummy's getting her bum out."
She added:
"I'll be 40 next year and this is probably the last chance I'll have to get my backside out in public without getting arrested! I'd like to say I still have the same derriere but sadly not. I think it's a little bit wider but I don't think it's doing too badly."
No, neither do we Gail neither do we….
