Page 3 girls who’ve dated A-listers – from Kelly Brook and Billy Zane to Kathy Lloyd and Eric Clapton
WHEN it comes to getting over a difficult break-up, there are few ways that would beat dating a stunning Page 3 girl.
And Olivia Wilde's ex Jason Sudeikis is now said to be growing close to English model Keeley Hazell, months after his split from the actress.
News of their blossoming friendship comes after Olivia was pictured moving her belongings into new boyfriend Harry Styles' Los Angeles home.
But Horrible Bosses star Sudeikis is far from the first famous face to have enjoyed a romance with a Page 3 stunner.
Everyone from Billy Zane to Eric Clapton and even Robert De Niro have been linked to the likes of Kelly Brook, Kathy Lloyd and Gillian de Terville.
Here we look at the Page 3 beauties that have dated some very famous stars...
Kelly Brook and Billy Zane
Kelly Brook, 41, is one of the most recognisable former Page 3 models, having gone on to star in a string of top TV shows, as well as continuing her modelling work.
And she enjoyed a very high profile romance with Titanic star Billy Zane, who she met while filming Survival Island in 2004.
The pair got engaged in 2007 before she entered Strictly, but split in August 2008.
Despite it being widely reported that the break-up was down to them growing apart, the claimed it was because Kelly was hesitant to make Los Angeles her permanent home.
Kathy Lloyd and 'Eric Clapton, Jason Orange and Mick Hucknall'
Ex-glamour model Kathy Lloyd, 53, rose to fame at the age of 18, in 1986, with her racy poses in The Sun.
Named Page 3 Girl Of The Year three times in 1986, 1990 and 1994, the popular model also appeared in lads' mags Maxim, Loaded and FHM.
And she's allegedly enjoyed three high profile romances in the past, before settling down with her current partner Lee Anderson and daughter Lola, 8.
Amid her modelling fame, she was often spotted with musician Eric Clapton as they dated around 1991, before she's said to have had a brief romance with Take That's Jason Orange around 1995.
A year later, Lloyd was then linked to Simply Red's Mick Hucknall, but it sadly wasn't to last.
Samantha Fox and Paul Stanley
She's now happily engaged to girlfriend Linda Olsen - four years after the death of her beloved partner Myra Stratton, who she was with for 12 years.
But back in her early modelling days, Samantha Fox, 54, briefly dated Kiss guitarist Paul Stanley when she was "around 21 or 22".
She once said of their past relationship: "He's a very talented guy. We had a great love affair."
And she told : "He was my boyfriend when I lived in New York and traveling around with him meeting all the the rockstars, it was such a great time."
Elsewhere, Fox hit headlines in 2017 when she accused late actor David Cassidy, who had died following organ failure shortly before, of sexually assaulting her in 1985.
Fox alleged in her autobiography that the former Partridge Family star followed her into a toilet in London and groped her.
She told the : “It shocked me. I was a huge fan and loved The Partridge Family."

After appearing as the first black model to star on Page 3, she left the industry in 1982 and landed a part in 1983 Bond film Octopussy with Roger Moore.
It was in the wake of this that Hollywood star Robert De Niro, 77, reportedly spotted a photo of her and called her at her parent's home in Sydenham, where she lived at the time.
He is said to have introduced himself as 'Bob', and invited her out.
They initially struck up a friendship, but it turned romantic some time later - with the pair thought to have dated for around two years, long-distance.

The beautiful brunette was one of the most popular Page 3 girls ever, first appearing in the iconic spot in 2009, when she was 18.
She was introduced to Wicks in 2016, but the couple didn’t post a picture together until 2018, when they announced they were expecting their first child.
