Menopause Whist Black Season Eight, episode FOUR is with Jennifer Stoute.
'If you can't control it, leave it! "
Jennifer Stoute has represented Great Britain more than 20 times, competing in two Commonwealth Games and two European Championships, where she earned both gold and silver medals. The highlight of her career came at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, where she won a bronze medal in the 4x400m relay, cementing her status as one of Britain’s finest sprinters.
Jennifer returned to the public eye as "Rebel" in 1986 on the immensely popular television show Gladiators. Her four-year stint on the show established her as a role model for children across the UK and an ambassador for numerous youth charities.
This experience led to further acting opportunities, including TV and radio appearances, roles in pantomimes, and guest spots on shows like This Morning and the Disney Channel.
Currently Jennifer runs a global sports management company Astra partners with her ex partner and father of her children John Regis.
Jennifer signed with Europe’s leading agency, Models1, as a mature model at the age of 53. Jennifer is a sought-after speaker who motivates others to reach their full potential
