Loose Women starlet Penny Lancaster is celebrating a landmark birthday as she turns 50 today.
The supermodel who most recently transformed into an on-screen bombshell has a multitude of talents, not only can she graciously glide down a catwalk like a feather floating from heaven but she is also undergoing training to become a police officer.
Her extensive and various list of jobs doesn’t end there either, with the blonde first striking up a career as a certified fitness instructor in her teens before she found fame in front of the lens.
After turning her back on the modelling world, Penny became the face of underwear brand Ultimo in 2002 but after two years of hard graft, chiefs decided not to renew her contract handing over the reigns to her husband, Sir Rod Stewart’s ex-wife Rachel Hunter – Ouch!
In 2020, after appearing on Famous and Fighting Crime, Penny signed up to City of London Police as a volunteer special constable.
To honour her momentous career as a red-hot supermodel along with being a lingerie legend – Daily Star are throwing it back to some of her sexiest all time moments.

During Penny’s time at the designer lingerie brand, the bombshell was frequently caught on camera causing quite a stir.
Given Rod’s wife would often strip to steamy lingerie in many public displays to promote underwear specialists Ultimo, it’s no wonder there were record sales in the UK during her time at the brand.
Showing up at Oxford Street’s Debenhams store, the TV icon ‘coincidentally’ forgot to bring half of her clothes as part of the promotion.
The blonde rocked a gaping blazer, showcasing her cleavage in a red and black lacy bra.
At the time it was believed that the model cashed in from being the face of the campaign, with reports suggesting Penny could have banked £150,000 for her contribution.

When it comes to stripping off in front of the camera, Penny has proved that she doesn’t do things by halves, except maybe when she decided to go topless that is.
Some of Penny’s hottest ever snaps were born from her two year stint with the lingerie specialists Ultimo.
Doing what she does best, the exercise enthusiast dared to bare all as she ditched her bra in a rather spicy reveal that certainly sent her legion of fans into meltdown.
Rocking just a pair of knickers, she wowed as she shot a backwards glance at the camera, allowing her to bare her skin and pert derrière to steal all of the limelight.

The Loose Women star, decided to revert back to her initial plan of tackling the world of fitness after things didn’t quite pan out with the underwear specialists.
Instead, the famous star opted to unleash a new DVD and Video called Ultimate Body Workout unveiling her hidden secrets to staying healthy and in great shape.
Penny caused temperatures to rise when she gave viewers a demo of what to expect at Sainsbury’s business centre launch event in October 2003.
Parading her abs of steal and never-ending pins, the icon opted to wear a teeny pair of red shorts that were teamed with a white – and almost translucent sports bra.

The 6ft 1 beauty, who is married to veteran rocker Sir Rod Stewart, almost blew the roof off with screams from excited fans at the Exhibition Centre in Glasgow as she took centre stage in some very racy garments.
Flaunting her svelte and toned curves, Penny demanded attention in coordinated lingerie and red gloves that were pulled up to her biceps.
Adding a touch of sass, she rocked larger-than-life platform heels that matched her hand wear.

Penny made history when she stepped out in red satin knickers teamed with a matching and risqué bra.
Judging by some of her sizzling content from her two year reign spent at Ultimo, it’s anybody’s guess why brand bosses opted to sign up Sir Rod Stewart’s ex-wife Rachel Hunter, instead of Penny.
As Rachel stepped into Penny’s shoes, becoming the new face of the underwear brand, tensions reportedly started to mount between the pair, although Rachel always claimed it was a “business decision” and nothing else.

Although the pair had squabbled in the past, Penny recently confirmed on an episode of Loose Women that they had patched things up and left the past behind them.
Penny told the panel: “It’s about being adults…
“We’ve moved on, grown up, and from the beginning I knew I wasn’t dating just Rod; I was in a relationship with his family.
“I saw how all his children were getting on and I wanted my future children to do that as well.”
Wardrobe mishap

When it comes to scorching attire, Penny has always been one to don an eye-popping or striking design.
Doing just that, the blonde went braless as she attended a swanky dinner with her musical husband.
The TV starlet hadn’t seemed to realise just how see-through her black halter neck dress had appeared in the dim lighting, as she left the Lounge Club in Hollywood with Rod.
Nevertheless, Penny is a complete professional and totally owned the wardrobe blunder, even if her famous assets were on full display.
