Until recently 23 year old Kelly was working as a credit controller and living in Enfield. Following her success on the show, she has gone on to be photographed for Marie Claire Magazine by the infamous Rankin, and Take 2 Model Management has agreed to represent her.

The series proved controversial; raising questions such as 'should girls with hidden impairments be involved in the competition?' and 'is the fashion industry ready to include disabled people in magazines and on the catwalk?'
