“Don’t wash too much,” Westwood smiled and said when asked the secret of her youthful looks.

Westwood’s 51-year-old hubby, Andreas Kronthaler interjected saying: “She only takes a bath every week. That’s why she looks so radiant … I only wash once a month.”

Westwood, who has campaigned against the meat industry depleting water supplies, previously said, “I just wash my bits and rush out in the morning and more often than not get in the bath after Andreas.’’

Westwood has been dubbed as an example of a modern day female impresario.
