Jennifer Ellison 'not quitting' lads' mags

Rex Features

Jennifer Ellison has said that she will continue to feature in lads' magazines for as long as her body "holds up".

The former soap star, 26, revealed that she enjoyed doing glamour shoots and admitted that her boyfriend Robbie Tickle was happy for her to strip off.

"I think you know when the time is right to stop, but my man tells me he likes the shots," she told the Daily Star. "And I think while it all holds up, why not?"

She claimed earlier this year that her pictures helped sell more magazines than any of her rival models, arguing that men liked her "big boobies".

Ellison's career has included roles in Brookside, Hotel Babylon, British horror film The Cottage and West End musical Chicago, while she also launched a brief pop career in 2003.
