Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Biography
Rosie Huntington (Rosie Alice Huntington-Whiteley) the English Rose model from Devon, likes older men. In late 2009 she began dating Kylie Minogue's ex-lover French actor Olivier Martinez who is twice her age.
The couple met at Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in November 2009, when she was the first ever British Victoria's Secret Angel. She had been modelling for the American lingerie and beauty products brand "Victoria's Secrets" since 2006 and made her debut for them in the 2006 Fashion Show in Los Angeles, but 2009 was the first time she had walked down the catwalk as a Secret Angel.
The couple saw 2010 in together at Martinez's flat in Paris and soon became the hottest couple around, but their romance was short-lived. Their busy lifestyles made their long-distance relationship too difficult and they split in February 2010. Rosie Huntington was devastated by the break-up but put on a brace face and flew out to Goa to spend Valentine's Day alone to get over it.
Now the 23-year-old beauty is half of a couple again, living with 43-year-old English actor and martial arts artist Jason Statham in his Hollywood home. They are virtually a "married couple" and are said to be blissfully happy.
They both have their respective movie careers, he has been busy filming his new crime film "Safe in Philadelphia" in New York while she is working on her acting debut in "Transformers 3 The Dark of the Moon" which is due to be released next year. She was chosen to replace Megan Fox in the role and has worked for the director Michael Bay before on a Victoria's Secret commercial.
Despite being one of the world's top models she can still send herself up. After her fellow models made fun of her famous pout backstage at the Fashion Show, she happily posed for cameras exaggerating it as well. She is popular with the other models and after Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio and Lily Aldridge all mimicked her pout for the cameras backstage Adriana said "Rosie is this sex-bomb, she is the sexiest Angel ever".
She was born in Freedom Fields Hospital in Plymouth on April 18th 1987 and attended Tavistock College. Whilst she was modelling she lived in London and commuted for the Victoria's Angels shows, but when it was announced in May 2010 she had been chosen to replace Fox in "Transformers 3" she moved to New York where she met Statham.
The 5'9" model has always had a lot of confidence. In 2006 she strutted down the New York catwalk wearing a gold and leopard skin bikini and bright turquoise boots. She also wore a sheer black and red corset and revealing see-through red pants.
She won the Elle Style Award in 2009 for "Model of the Year" and was photographed in 2010 by Terry Richardson for this year's famous Pirelli Calendar. In April it was announced she was to be the new face of Monsoon Spring/Summer Lingerie collection and she worked with the noted photographer Rankin on a hardback book dedicated to her. "Rosie 10" was shot in California and is due out at the end of the year.
Despite filming in Chicago and her boyfriend filming in New York the couple managed to spend time together in November 2010 shopping for things for the home they have set up together.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has not abandoned the catwalk for the big screen and intends to continue being a Victoria's Secret Angel for as long as they want her.
