Kelly Brook, born Kelly Ann Parsons in Rochester, Kent, England, on 23 November 1979. Kelly Brooke is the daughter of Sandra, a cook, and Ken, a scaffolder. She is an English model, actress, occasional swimwear designer and television presenter. Her modelling career began at 16 after winning a beauty competition. She starred in her first advertising campaign for Lee Jeans. Her first media break came when she was taken an interest in by the UK national tabloid newspaper The Star, who still regularly publish images of her to this day. In 2010, fourteen years after she started off her career as a lingerie model, she was chosen as the "new face and body" of lingerie maker Ultimo's advertising campaign.
