The 39-year-old star, who gave birth to son Rafferty earlier in 2015, says motherhood has made her learn to love her curves.
She refreshingly admits: “I’m a size 14 and Id just like to tone up a bit, but all in all I’m pretty happy with my body.”
“Having a baby put things in perspective for me - you suddenly see how wonderful your body is because it can create life. It’s not just how a top looks on you!”
And Martine, who has always been curvy, admits that even when she was smaller she struggled to find clothes because she is a natural hourglass.
Speaking to Essentials magazine, Martine admits she found it difficult being scrutinised for how she looked, but said she now has the confidence to be happy in her own skin.
‘I’m not a model and it’s not my job to be that tiny’ Martine says defiantly.
