Britt Alert!

The Real Marigold Hotel BBC One

Rod’s former girlfriend Britt Ekland has started doing the rounds to advertise her involvement in the new BBC series The Real Marigold Hotel so expect the Rod wore my knickers story to resurface..

Talking about Rod is always going to make headlines so Britt has told this week’s Radio Times that she questioned how hands-on he is as a father. saying “Do I envy my ex Rod Stewart for being able to have babies in his 60s? I sincerely doubt he changes nappies.

“My son and his wife split all the childcare but I don’t think men in Britain do that – especially not those with much younger wives.”

Earlier in the year Britt told how Rod made her pay to stay with him – despite him not needing the money.

Looking back on her relationship with Rod in the 70s, she said: “I had to pay $100-a-month board and lodgings when I was living with him. “I’d go shopping with him and watch him buy clothes from Yves Saint Laurent but nothing for me.”

Britt added: “Once women are past 50, it’s over. It’s still a man’s world. That’s what makes money. But the #MeToo movement showed that things can change and we must never stop trying “The past year has been spectacular. It’s liberating to still be able to learn lines and be taken seriously. For many years, I wasn’t. Now, it has turned around and my life is like a dream.”

To be fair to Britt she has always been great with SMILER she has spoke to us many times [On anything apart from Rod!] and even did our ‘Star Reader’ section in the magazine
