BBC CHIEF’S DAUGHTER

BELLA YENTOB: 22 PARENTS: Alan Yentob, 70, the former creative director of the BBC, and TV producer Phillipa Walker. An English graduate from Manchester University, Bella has her sights set on becoming a poet.

If she achieves her ambition, no doubt her dad will be onhand to make a documentary about her. But until poetry starts paying the rent, Bella dabbles in the world of modelling, where she’s appeared in Burberry campaigns and runway shows.

She says it was ‘terrifying, but really, really fun and a great thing to be part of’.

‘I’m no one special so I don’t know [why they chose me], but I suppose we got on quite well.’ Why indeed?
