'I'M A TIGER'

Forget the schmaltzy TV ad with her hubby, the cute smile and those doe eyes. Mrs Redknapp's got bite

Don't underestimate Louise Redknapp. Don't you dare.

She may be beautiful, she may have a super-hot husband, successful career and, on the surface, the sort of life that seems pretty darn perfect. But say this to her face and you'll be met with a steely stare. Because life has taught Louise, 35, that she can never take anything for granted. Rather than fate dealing her a fistful of aces, Louise insists she's fought hard for everything she's achieved - her career, her family and her marriage.

Although we're shooting her wrestling to control a real-life leopard, we're discovering that Louise is the real powerhouse in the room.

Beautiful in a not-trying-too-hard kind of way, she is softly spoken, funny and incredibly warm - chatting away to everyone on the shoot. She gives a laugh when we ask her whether life with Jamie is just as perfect as portrayed in their Thomas Cook travel advert. If you haven't seen it, it features the sun-kissed couple frolicking on an exotic beach looking impossibly gorgeous. In truth, the ad campaign, which reportedly earned them £500,000, divided a nation: half fell further in love with Louise and Jamie, 36; the rest found it fingernails-down-a-blackboard irritating. All of us, though, came away with the impression that life couldn't get any sunnier in the Redknapp relationship.
