Nancy Dell'Olio is in a state of Andress as she emerges from the sea in a skimpy bikini, Bond-style.

The Strictly Come Dancing star - who once dated former England boss Sven Goran Eriksson - appears to recreate the famous beach scene from Dr No, made famous by Ursula Andress.

Dell'Olio has gone from "Oo Sven" to 007 in the photo for Hello! magazine taken as she met Prince Harry in Jamaica last week.

And she told the magazine she has no problem with showing off her figure at the age of 50 because she is proud of her body.

Italian Dell'Olio said: "I have never loved my body more than I do now."

"Lately I have been exhausted tired, but it doesn't show. People say I have never looked more healthy and that comes from inside. I am the happiest I have ever been."

And the glamorous lawyer spoke of another bond she has forged as she told of her admiration for Harry after their meeting while she holidayed with friends. They met at a state dinner and she was struck by how handsome the young royal looked.

"He has a charisma, definitely; a twinkle in his eye and a lovely smile, a lovely face. In the flesh, he is even more handsome than in his pictures.

"I said to him, 'We should go dancing' because one time we danced together. We had a good laugh."

Although single, she confirmed she did briefly date former M&S Chairman Sir Stuart Rose. "It is something that happened, but it's not what's happening at the moment," she said.
