In my youth I was often likened to Sarah Ferguson, but with dark brown hair. I also had/have some of her personality traits - the good ones I'm sure. . When I look in the mirror I believe I can see the resemblance.
Mum and Dad were visiting a few years ago, and I introduced them to an elderly neighbour, she looked at us all then said, 'you are the image of your Dad, he could never deny you, but you don't look like your Mum at all' . This tickled my Dad and I, as he is my Step-Dad ( has been for 36 years ) and is no blood relation at all, he gave me a big hug and said 'that's my girl'. So I reckon I look like my Dad ( Step-Dad ).
I lived in America for a while and I was likened to Diana Rigg (can't see it myself) and more recently in my early sixties likened to Pru Leith. Think it was just the hair and colourful glasses.
Lindylou23, how bizarre is this. I too was likened to Sophia Loren in my teens and twenties. The bizarre bit is my name is Linda and my family nickname is Lindylou. Are you sure you're not me?
In my youth several people said I was the spitting image of Anita Harris, and the commissionaire at a famous London store once held the door open for me and said "Good Morning Miss Harris"! I couldn't see the likeness myself. Don't know who I look like now.
As a young woman, I was told I resembled Julie Felix (the singer on The Frost Report) then a few years later : Nana Mouskouri. When a local artist sketched me, the result looked like my maternal grandmother, which was disconcerting, especially as I was in my thirties at the time!
Somebody told me years ago I reminded them a great deal of Judy Finnegan (Richard and Judy, This Morning show). Felt quite insulted as I used to watch it with my youngest baby, completely catatonic through lack of sleep. I’m certainly not Judy’s age. Think that’s why I only ever watch the lunchtime news now ?
Quite a few years ago a stint with short red hair got me called Anne Robinson..
I worked for Boots opticians at the time when their uniform was a hideous pink drop waisted box pleated ensemble complete with pussy cat bow....I felt like Mr Blobby in that
Now - hair wise I look like that picture of Einstein - sort of mad scientist. I have a hair appointment early July and I am so looking forward to it. More than once - long, long ago I was likened to Nana Mouskouri. It was the long hair and glasses. I loved her singing voice and wish I had that too.
