Biography Jasmine shot to fame in 2005 as a finalist in the popular TV show Make Me A Supermodel.

She is the daughter of playboy Brian Lennard, who founded Sacha Shoes, and actress Marilyn Galsworthy. They divorced when her mother found out that her husband had gambled away the family fortune.

Jasmine was a model in one of the first series of Make Me a Supermodel in 2005. She was voted off the programme in the early stages by the judging panel but was widely credited as being the most entertaining and watchable contestant on the series by the viewing public because of her outrageous behaviour.

Jasmine became the presenter of Make Me a Supermodel Extra in 2005. However, she was soon fired after dubbing panel judge Rachel Hunter as “Rachel Munter”.

Jasmine angered judge Rachel Hunter by describing her as “spotty, finished and fat” and also said: “I suggest she throws out the truckload of make-up she uses and hires a personal trainer.”

Since her time on the show, she has created a celebrity career out of her appearance, becoming a red-carpet regular and is well known for her publicised rifts with fellow models such as Sophie Anderton, her modelling rival.

In 2010 she gave birth to her son, Phoenix, whose father is American musician, Seth “Shifty” Binzer. Seth was not present at the birth of his son after Jasmine’s 84-hour labour.

Jasmine is bisexual, but doesn’t like to be labelled. Her partners have allegedly included Simon Cowell and Christiano Ronaldo.

Jasmine insists that she is not gay, saying: “I meet a lot of beautiful girls working in the modelling industry and I prefer to look at them rather than men, sometimes. I’m not a lesbian. … but being with a woman is a totally different sexual experience. They’re soft, with curves, boobs and sensual lips.”
