KEZIA Noble keeps a box of clippings from her days as a glamour model in a box hidden out of reach of her 10-year-old son.
Recently he found them, but his reaction was not necessarily what she’d have expected. He suggested they both move to so that men couldn’t ogle her.

“He’s very protective of me… he said in Saudi Arabia you can cover yourself up head to toe,” she explained laughing.
“I told him I used to be an underwear catalogue model. He said ‘no, you didn’t.’”
What saved 45-year-old Kezia’s blushes somewhat was the lack of any extremely risqué snaps.
“Can you imagine if he saw me topless?” she said. “That’s why I’m glad I never did it.”
Kezia had first come to prominence in the late 2000s running a dating coaching company and as a regular in lads’ mag Zoo where she also had a weekly advice column.
The mum-of-one – who has since reinvented herself as a political commentator – was speaking to The Sun on the back of last week’s local elections, in which, representing , she unsuccessfully stood in Queens Gate ward in Kensington and Chelsea.
“It’s a die-hard blue area,” Kezia said. “We knew we weren’t going to win but I wanted to do it because I wanted to get the experience of canvassing, and how running a campaign works… speaking to people on the ground.
“It helped to raise my profile.”

Having dusted herself off, in three months’ time she is moving with her son to Littlehampton, West Sussex, where her party successfully gained two council divisions.
She wants a chance to get involved in local politics there. But ultimately, Kezia has loftier ambitions.
She said: “I want to run for MP. I would never want to be Prime Minister, but I would love to be head of Housing or Education. That would be my dream.”
Asked why she doesn’t fancy taking the keys to 10 Downing Street, she said it’s about “security”.
“I have family and things – I wouldn’t like to go through that… I mean, I see Nigel (Farage) with five bodyguards, which is ridiculous,” she said.
“The main thing I’m passionate about is immigration, which is affecting housing, but also children and their education.
“I do believe that I’m joining Reform to make children’s futures better.
“I think children are the forgotten people. I think that Gen Z are just completely forgotten about.

“And if they cannot afford to live anywhere or have the same expectations that I had growing up in the 90s, then there is no future for them.”
Kezia, originally from Bayswater, Central London, had left school at 15 and admits for 10 years she was a “real deadbeat”.
“I say it to everyone, I was a pretty girl, deadbeat, going to nightclubs – I earned doing promotional work, odd here and there, then modelling.”
“I was a waste of space,” she added laughing.
But suddenly life kicked into gear age 25. “I just changed my life around,” said Kezia. “I was like, okay, that was fun, now I want to make money. Now I want a legacy of some sort.”
During this time she was approached by a stranger in a posh London bar.
She assumed he just wanted to chat her up and take her number, but instead he offered an unusual job opportunity.
“He’s like, would you be interested in attending one of our weekend events? We teach men how to be better with women,” Kezia explained.

“I was so curious, and they paid me for it. He said you just have to give some feedback. It was called the Hot Babe section of the dating bootcamp.”
Her job, among other attractive young women, was to observe the struggling men’s chat-up techniques and offer advice.
Kezia quickly noticed the other girls “weren’t giving good feedback…they were just being disingenuous”.
She added: “I was much more to the point.”
Her straight-down-the-line advice didn’t tread on eggshells and it impressed the company owners who offered her a regular role.
Kezia quickly found herself in a male-dominated industry where she had a unique selling point.
“This was this multi-million-pound industry and there was no female voice,” she said.
On the back of that, she set up a channel in which she gave her own dating advice and it “absolutely blew up” with millions of views a week.
“I was like, okay, there’s definitely something here,” she said. “There’s obviously a lot of people out there who want my training.”
She then got a book deal, and set up her own dating company, which allowed her to travel the globe giving presentations and seminars.
It also gave her the opportunity to do some higher profile glamour modelling work.
“I’m not tall,” she said. “I’m like 5 ‘5. So I could never do proper modelling.”
She said there was some pressure to pose fully nude but she always refused.
“I remember them saying, but if you do topless, we’ll pay you X amount and we’ll put you on the front cover… I said, no, no, no,” she explained.
“I don’t want to have that as my legacy… I was going to have children one day too.”
Having her son had coincided with Zoo shutting down, and while he was still very young she’d taken a step back from her dating to focus on being a mum.
Then last year she sold it for a tidy profit.
But added to that, Kezia’s interests had evolved. During the Covid she’d been posting her views on the lockdown, which gained her a new following.
This led to TV spots as a political commentator and suddenly she had a new passion, particularly when it comes to illegal and young people.
“I went to the Houses of and I was like, this is it. This is my calling,” she explained.
“You need to be articulate and a good orator if you want to get into – that’s the thing, you need to be a bit of a showman, which I’m used to.
“People like the way I put my views across… People appreciate it if you’re just honest.
“I know what it’s like to be those young people with no aim in their life.
“I’ve been a single mother, I’ve created a company with a handful of – I haven’t gone the normal way of things.”
