Early Constantine, for those of us of a certain age and disposition, is where it’s at: dancing to Desmond Dekker with Princess Margaret; posing for Patrick Lichfield on Mustique; hanging out at Tramp and Annabel’s. But I don’t know, for all that it must have been lucrative, that it made her happy, even if it was only after it ended that her boozing began in earnest (she once appeared drunk on QVC). Woodall, now a makeup magnate, gets hardly a mention, and I suppose that Constantine’s late period – into which she has been accompanied by her husband, Sten Bertelsen (who looks like Morten Harket of A-ha) – is too domestic and thus too boring to make for good copy (though she does, at some point, become BFs with Jake Shears of Scissor Sisters).

Constantine has an intrepid side; little fazes her, not even the fact she’s apt to faint when going to the loo. Middle period Constantine is mostly all about her television career, when she and her friend Trinny Woodall made a living out of telling women what not to wear (in this capacity, she once explained to me that I had “saddlebags” and should immediately burn the coat I was wearing).
