She told The Meredith Viera Show: ‘I just feel my generation of women, like Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Claudia [Schiffer], we had to earn our stripes and take our stepping stones to get to where we have gotten; to accomplish what we have achieved to this date.’

‘I kind of feel like, “My God, we’ve worked so hard and we are still working at it – then it just comes like that for them.”
She added: ‘I am actually grateful for the way I had my career. I wouldn’t want it any other way. So that’s for them, this is me.’
