A 58-year-old grandmother claims her good looks cause men to crash their car and start crying in front of their wives.

Stephanie Arnott, who has a 38-year-old daughter, appeared on This Morning to tell presenters Phillip Schofield and Amanda Holden all about her beauty and how if affects male concentration.

But she came unstuck on the show as Phillip introduced a clip of Stephanie walking around outside the This Morning studios earlier in the day but nobody turned around to look at her, no cars crashed and no men were spotted weeping.

Phillip asked her: "What happened?"

An embarrassed Stephanie replied: "I don't know?"

Despite this, Stephanie claimed her looks caused a grown man to weep while he was standing next to his wife because he was looking at her.

When asked what happens when guys cry just by looking at her, she explained: "I've experience it once before with a man standing by their wife. They went a bit soppy and had welled up eyes."

And she recalled one incident when she nearly caused a car crash.

She said: "The last time I nearly caused an accident was 12 years ago with a friend. People take a double take. It's quite overwhelming when you're walking to your car.

"If you look sexy and wear nice clothes it puts men off their driving."

Despite all the attention Stephanie claims to get, her husband of 11 years, Ian, apparently doesn't get jealous "at all" - and even doesn't mind when he gets called her "minder" or "chauffeur"

She said: "He loves the attention that I get. He loves it.

"They think he's my minder and my chauffeur. He thinks it's really funny.

"People are very surprised I'm a grandmother and once when I picked up my granddaughter from school someone was mumbling something like, 'That can't possibly be your grandmother.' "

Stephanie insists her looks are all natural, apart from her fake boobs, and believes she would've been a Vogue model if it wasn't her a sugar addiction.

She said: "I should've been a Vogue model. I blew a modelling career. It was a serious sugar craving and I just couldn't get out of it.

"Obviously when I was younger I was better looking. I didn't realise that a lot of men were frightened of me then.

"I got a lot of attention and it created a lot of jealousy.

"I still do have a lot of attention wherever I go. People look at me a lot on the street."

While Stephanie makes fairly bold claims about her looks, she insists she is not vain in the slightest.

She said: "I'm a very sympathetic person. It's very important no to sound too obsessed or vain.

"If I was vain then I would've had a cog thread lift, would've had my teeth done before, I'm getting them done now."
