Kelly Brook is absolutely loving her bustling life in London with hubby Jeremy Parisi. After some sage advice from her grandmother, she's determined to live a life free of regrets - and that includes being at peace with her decision not to have children.The presenter, who celebrated her 45th birthday in November, has returned to North London after selling her 15th-century Kent country house that she purchased in her twenties.

Her grandmother's straight talk allowed her to realise that life without kids isn't synonymous with a bundle of regrets; in fact, it can be quite the contrary. "You can change most things in life, can't you?
