I was a Page 3 girl but now I’m a black cab driver – the questions I get asked all the time
A FORMER Page 3 girl who now drives a black cab has revealed the questions she always gets asked.
Donna Ewin was one of the most popular girls in the 1980s and 90s and still sells nude pics of herself, 35 years after she made her debut.
She first posed topless when she was 17 in 1988 and spent 10 years in the glamour industry until 1998.
During her stellar career she also was on the cover of Playboy five times and her fans are still eager to get their hands on sexy photos to this day.
As well as doing photoshoots Donna has also spent 20 years driving around London as a black cabbie.
In her heyday, the mum who is now 53, was known as The Body and is still able to make a living on OnlyFans where she has nearly 800 posts available to her subscribers.
Her bio says: “My subscription is currently at £4.99 as I’m unable to come on here as much as I’d like, I will still be posting content and answering messages, but as my life is very busy, I am only posting 1 PPV a month at the moment until I am able to be on here more.
“Come. Getting to know me with a personal touch. Where you will be able to get to view unseen recent photos. Behind the scenes past photos that have never been seen.”
She promotes her OnlyFans page through her social media channels where fans still remember her earlier work.
On X, previously known as Twitter, where she has billed herself as a “Page 3 legend” she’s gained 13,800 followers.
She also has a dedicated following on Instagram with one fan writing under a photo: “Still one of the most beautiful ladies on the planet”.
Another said: “Donna Ewin never aged, so fit”.
While a third person added: “Wow!!! Used to have your pic on my bedroom wall.”
A fourth chimed in with: ”Such a babe. Always my favourite.”
She was also asked if she could be any other Page 3 girl, who would she be.
Donna replied: “They are all amazing. I wouldn’t be able to choose just one.”
The Page 3 fan favourite grew up in Bethnal Green, East London and went to the London College of Fashion after finishing her school days.
She also worked in pubs and restaurants across the capital.
Donna revealed though that she wasn’t able to pursue a career as a fashion model due to her body type.
She told London Taxi Radio: “People said when I was that age you should do modelling blah blah blah and a few things grew and I couldn’t be a fashion model.
“I wasn’t the right shape, I was pretty shapely, and someone said try the Page 3. I joined an agency and went from there really, but my dad was horrified.”
Donna also revealed that she thought 17 was too early to be a Page 3 girl and that the supposed glamorous lifestyle was nothing more than smoke and mirrors.
After packing in her modelling career she turned her hand to acting and featured in Kevin & Perry Go Large and the comedy sketch show series The Fast Show.
But she eventually took up a more conventional job.
She said: “My career was ending and I wasn’t a Shakespearean actress and I wasn’t Barbara Windsor and I left school and I didn’t study. My dad is a black cab driver so I am ‘like what do I do’.”
Donna also revealed what it was like being a female cabbie in a male-dominated world when she started out 20 years ago.
She said: “Different. I remember going down at Heathrow and I walked into the cafe and I felt like I had three heads, like I was a cyclops.
“Sometimes I did feel a bit intimidated but I thought I thought ‘I am going to hold my head up high and if they look they look’. It is hard.
“That is one that stands out and I remember the most. Some blokes are fine and others still do get the hump because it is a woman cab driver, they still get the hump
“I remember this bloke at Tottenham Court Road once, he looked at me and shook his head in disgust. I went ‘hiii’ and really was playing it up to him and he got the hump and drove off.”
Elsewhere, Melinda Messenger has revealed she met her fiancé while covered in mud and wee on Celeb SAS.
Kelly Brook has said she married a man who didn’t speak her language.
