Page 3 girl Susan Shaw has passed away after a four-year battle with lung cancer.
The 70-year-old former glamour model, who famously turned down Sir Rod Stewart, died on Wednesday.
Her daughter Kim told The Sun: “I’m really proud of her and her work. She travelled all over the world and met amazing people.
“She was also good friends with Linda Lusardi and Samantha Bond.
“Her friend told me Rod Stewart pursued her and even contacted her agent to ask her out. But she wasn’t interested.”
Susan continued until her 50s and appeared nude alongside racing driver James Hunt during her career.

The F1 driver, known for being a womaniser, posed with his overalls unzipped baring his chest with a badge that said “sex is a high-performance thing” as a naked Susan gazed up at him.
She was formerly married to Ian Drury and the pair remained friends after their split.
Kim, the daughter of Susan and Ian, told the publication: “They stayed friendly, even after the split, and dad helped take care of her when she was sick.”

Susan, who was friends with Page 3 icon Linda Lusardi, is thought to have caught Rod’s eye back when he was performing in the 1970s.
His iconic record Da Ya Think I’m Sexy hit number one in the UK and the top ten around the world.
He dated Dee Harrington, before going on to court Britt Ekland in 1975 and marry Alana Stewart four years later.
Rod went on to tie the knot with model Rachel Hunter but their relationship came to an end in 2006.
The 76-year-old rocker is now married to Loose Women star Penny Lancaster 49.
Rod is the father of eight children and he shares two sons, Alistair and Aiden, with wife Penny.
