Still a pin-up after four decades, 59-year-old former Page 3 girl Nina Carter

The pose is a little less racy than her fans might remember.

But given that almost 40 years have passed since her 1970s’ heyday, Nina Carter’s striking looks have remained remarkably unchanged.

The 59-year-old became one of the world’s most successful glamour models after she found fame as a Page 3 girl.

‘I have changed my view, because before I knew Douglas I was very anti any kind of surgery,’ she said.

‘But when I see the effect it has on people, especially those who have severe abnormalities, their lives are completely changed.

‘People come from all over the world and have all sorts of reasons for having plastic surgery. In that sense, it is a wonderful thing.

‘I feel that if you have bags under your eyes and it makes you feel better, then I cannot see any reason not to go ahead with it,’ added Miss Carter, who was married to Yes keyboard player Rick Wakeman for 20 years.

‘I would most definitely consider it in future. I’m never going to be a plastic surgery nut, but if I needed to have something done, then yes, I would do it,’ said the model, who now works as a life coach.
