I was a glamour model and on the first series of I’m A Celebrity – now I’m an amateur athlete at 50 years old | The Sun

A FORMER model and I'm a Celebrity star has swapped fame for a very different career.

Nell McAndrew, 50, was one of the original I'm a Celebrity campmates and enjoyed a successful career as a glamour model in the 90s.



But these days she's an amateur athlete and has completed the gruelling London Marathon seven times.

Not only is she now a fitness fanatic but Nell has also tried her hand at writing, sharing her tips and tricks for running in a book titled Guide to Running: Everything You Need to Know to Train, Race and More.

During her time as a model Nell appeared in the pages of lads' mags including FHM, Loaded and Maxim.

Famously in 1998 Nell's body was used as the basis for Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider video game series.
