Diana Hayden has always proved she's more than a pretty face.

Between October 2007 and March 2008, the former Miss World froze 16 of her eggs with the help of an infertility specialist.

In 2016, she gave birth to a healthy baby using those frozen eggs. She was 42.

'A career woman need not think about her biological clock and get pressurised into getting married earlier than she wants to or have a baby when she isn’t ready.'

'I froze my eggs for two reasons: I was busy with my career at that time and, more important, I was very clear that I was going to wait to fall in love and marry before having a baby,' the former beauty queen had said.
