Brianna simply stunned after shaping ‘curviest’ woman victory

IRELAND’S “curviest” woman, Brianna Connaughton from Waterford, was literally lost for words when style guru Gok Wan told her she could look forward to a very successful modelling career.

Brianna from Passage East was suffering badly from laryngitis when Gok placed the crown on her head at the final of Simply Be Curvy in Dublin on Saturday night.

The 24-year-old co-ordinator of a Garda youth diversion project in Waterford was selected from thousands of women with a body size of 14 or more.
