Elle Macpherson Tops Poll As The 'Most Admired Parent'

Elle Macpherson Tops Poll As The 'Most Admired Parent'

PA

Elle Macpherson has just been named 'most admired parent'. The host of Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model is regularly photographed working the school mum model look in statuesque heels, sunglasses and high maintenance hair at her two sons' London prep school.

We always knew we should have tried harder at the school run look. A quick comb through just doesn't cut it if you want to be 'the most admired parent'. Oh and it also all helps if you're a sleb.

Elle, 48, came first, followed by Myleene Klass in second position and Victoria Beckham in third place.

Unsurprisingly Macpherson, dubbed The Body for her svelte figure, was also deemed the most desirable mother by men who took part in the survey.

She has two sons with her former long-term boyfriend, French millionaire Arki Busson, Arpad Flynn, 13, and Aurelius Cy, eight.

Of the fact that 20 paparazzi are regularly outside the school, which the children of Claudia Schiffer and Stella McCartney also attend, she said: 'The kids get really, really ­embarrassed. But it is part and parcel of this job and I try to make the most of it.'

The survey was carried out by Paramount Home Entertainment to tie in with the DVD launch of the Australian classic comedy The Castle, first released in 1997.
