How she's changed: Pouty Abbey Crouch is unrecognisable from her fresh-faced teen years

By Andrea Magrath


Changing face: Abbey is sporting plumped-up lips and blonde hair these days


The staggering bright blue eyes are the exact same... but that's about where the similarities between this pretty young woman and the Abbey Crouch we know today end.

Posing confidently with highlights in her brunette hair and her vest pulled up to expose her midriff, she was a fresh-faced 18-year-old.

This was Abbey Crouch (née Clancy) in her days in girl band Genie Queen in 2004.

Two years later, she would make it to the finals of Britain's Next Top Model and catch the eye of footballer Peter Crouch.

Despite losing out to Lianna Fowler, Abbey's fame was cemented and her girl-next-door beauty would win her lucrative modelling contracts.

She was the face of EuroMillions and Lynx3 spray, and landed the covers of FHM and Sports Illustrated.

But these days, Abbey's plumped-up lips and seemingly frozen, arch-eyed expression have led to speculation about what work the model may have had done to transform her looks.

Of course, seven years is going to make a difference to anyone's face, but the model and television presenter today is practically unrecognisable to her teenage self.

In new pictures taken this week, Abbey, still only 25, displays a surprisingly plump pout, in stark contrast to the natural smile she sported at the start of her fame.

A spokesperson for Mrs Crouch insisted to Mail Online that the WAG has not had any work done on her lips.

But photographs of the blonde beauty in 2006 and 2007 reveal a much more natural looking smile, with a thinner top lip.

And even pictures of the model smiling earlier this month in Dubai show a fuller smile.

Hold me close: Abbey Crouch keeps a tight grip on baby Sophia while out shopping

Hold me close: Model Abbey Clancy carries her growing daughter Sophia around the shops in Liverpool


She may only be eight months old but Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch's daughter Sophia already looks too big for her petite mum to hold.

The 25-year-old model took the tot for a stroll around her home town of Liverpool on Thursday, with her own mum in tow.

But instead of opting for pushing her around in a pram, Abbey decided to carry the youngster through the town.


Acting as the protective mother she firmly wrapped both of her arms around Sophia and gripped on to her as she snuggled up to her mum.

Dressed in baby pink hooded jacket with matching baby grow and socks, Sophia looked perfectly comfortable as she was transported through Speke retail park for a spot of shopping.

But the WAG seemed to be struggling to take her baby's weight, clenching both arms around her for support as she leaned back.

The youngster seems to be taking after her tall mother, who stands at 5ft 9in, and even taller father - footballer Peter Crouch is a looming 6ft 7in.

The catwalk star and TV host, who married Crouch in June this year, still looked stunning as she went about her motherly duties.

Looking tanned fresh from her trip to Dubai earlier this month, Abbey dressed in festive red trousers with black flats and a long-sleeved black top, which showed off her toned midriff.

While she ensured baby Sophia was wrapped up warm, Abbey only had a scarf to keep herself from the chilly November weather.

And with three generations of Clancys out on the town, it was clear to see where Abbey got her blonde looks from.

Her mother Karen joined her famous daughter for a spot of shopping, carrying the bags as Abbey's hands were full with Sophia.

Karen looked equally as stylish in brown leather boots, fur-trimmed jacket and large scarf, the pair could have been mistaken for sisters.

Green with envy! Abbey Crouch's figure-hugging dress shows off every curve

Svelte: Abbey Crouch shows off her figure in curve-hugging dress as she arrives at the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Awards


You might expect to see bags under her eyes and unflattering love handles forming after giving birth to daughter Sophia Ruby.

But Abbey Crouch has once again defied her post-pregnancy body by looking sensational and incredibly trim on the red carpet at the Cosmopolitan Woman Of The Year Awards.

The mother-of-one posed in a figure-hugging dress that flattered her curves in all the right places at the event at on Thursday night.

Goody bags ahoy! Abbey left clutching her freebies and had untied her hair


The former Britain's Next Top Model contestant opted for a green knee-length frock with lace detail, that was relatively demure despite the material cutaway at the cleavage.

However, the slightly dubious pattern had an air of 'grandmother's curtains', but 25-year-old Crouch pulled the look off with ease and grace.

Chic: Abbey didn't bother with a coat as she left the venue, making sure photographers captured her figure


By the end of the evening she had let her hair down, literally, after untying it from a ponytail and letting it freely cascade over her shoulders.

She also made the most of the freebies, leaving the venue clutching her goodie bags and giggling with friends as she sped away in a taxi.

Good night then? There seems to be more goodie bags in the back of the taxi than there are people

Abbey, who tied the knot to football ace Peter in June, gave birth in March.

Just eight months later it is clear to see that she has shed all of her pregnancy weight and rekindled the figure that made her famous.

While Crouch didn't walk away with any prizes for her mantlepiece, she watched as Amanda Holden was announced Ultimate Theatre Star.

The event, hosted by Fearne Cotton and held at Banqueting House in Whitehall, also saw Debbie Harry rewarded with Ultimate Icon.

But it's not always glitz and glamour for the Liverpudlian, with Crouch posting a picture of her daughter looking grubby on Twitter last month.

Celebrating: Abbey opted for a more simple black dress when celebrating Wayne Rooney's birthday last month with husband Peter


Just hours before attending Wayne Rooney's birthday party last month, and giving no signs of domestic chores as she stepped out in a sleek LBD, the blonde bombshell had been wiping chocolate stains from her daughter.

She posted a photo on her Twitter page of seven-month-old Sophia, saying: 'Babies and chocolate biscuits not a good combo xx'
