My mum was daytime TV icon – I’m in a totally different job after going to school with footie legend & music star’s kids
AS the daughter of the world’s foremost poo-inspecting health expert, it was always unlikely Gillian McKeith’s daughter would follow in her mum’s footsteps.
Introduced to the celebrity lifestyle early on thanks to Gillian’s success on Channel 4’s You Are What You Eat, it was natural that the Scots nutritionist’s child would enjoy an eventful upbringing,
But Afton, 23, has gone down a completely different route than her iconic I’m a Celebrity….Get Me Out Of Here contestant mum, 64.
She briefly dated Brooklyn Beckham as a teenager and attended Hampstead Fine Arts College with the likes of Madonna’s son Rocco Ritchie and Anais Gallagher – daughter of Noel.
Afton is now working as a movement coach, helping pageant contestants with their poise on the catwalk, but also works as an actor, using her dad – US lawyer Howard Magaziner’s – surname.
The redhead – who set up her own firm Afton Movement Coaching – was crowned Miss USA Spokesmodel last year.
She entered the glamour contest as the Sioux Falls contestant, a city in South Dakota.
And she showed off her incredible physique in three stunning ensembles including a dazzling silver and maroon bikini showcasing her toned abs.
After winning, she said: “I am really proud to win because I worked hard preparing for the pageant.
“I got to also showcase my acting skills which was a major factor in my win and a passion of mine.
“The platform is a great way to bring awareness to the importance of health and fitness which was my main focus as there was also fitness portion in the competition.”
She now lives in Beverley Hills, Los Angeles, and regularly shares modelling snaps to her 42k Instagram followers.
