Trinny Woodall has revealed she used her ‘habit of nakedness’ to help promote her early career on the London Underground and even used a cheeky bare-chested snap as her business card.

The 60-year-old businesswoman told Jamie Laing on his Great Company podcast that she used a topless photo with melons on her breasts to boost sales of her 2000 book, *Ready 2 Dress*.

She skyrocketed to fame with Susannah Constantine after their Ready to Wear column which dished out fashion advice.

She told Jamie: ‘It was a time when maybe I should knuckle down and make things as safe as possible for Lyla.’

‘But I also knew that this was this crossroads in my life.’

The interview comes after Trinny split from her partner Charles Saatchi, 81, last year after a decade together.

And friends suggested the reason behind the split was the couple’s 20-year age gap which caused issues in their relationship.

Speaking to The Sun, friends of Trinny said she felt it was ‘time to move on’ and ‘their age difference started to become an issue.
