Adriana Lima has revealed that having her daughter Valentina has made her feel "more womanly".

The model, who gave birth 16 months ago, said that she feels sexier than ever before.

She told Hollyscoop: "It was the best thing that can happen to my life. During pregnancy it was great. Those pregnancy hormones did wonders to me.

"I feel much more beautiful, sexier, more womanly. I think my hair, my skin is much better now."

The 29-year-old also praised her fellow Victoria's Secrets models and new mothers Miranda Kerr and Doutzen Kroes.

She added: "They were asking a few questions. I think they're very responsible and very gentle. I'm sure they're being wonderful mothers."

Lima has previously revealed that she prefers being a mother to being a model because it's taught her what unconditional love is.
