Sophie's family plan - Feb 13 2008
Sophie Anderton wants to move to the country and become a mother.

The shamed star - who has been off drugs for three months after checking into rehab - wants to settle down with boyfriend Ed Buxton and start a family.

Sophie told Closer magazine: "I want to live in the country and settle down properly with Ed. I've always wanted to have kids, and I think I'll make a good mum. I wan the stability of a family."

The 30-year-old former model was spurred on to get clean after drug allegations from a Sunday newspaper. Old friend Ed supported Sophie throughout the scandal and it brought them closer together.

She revealed: "Ed was always around, but I never dated him. I thought he was too nice. Most of my past boyfriends were bad boys,

"Then, when I relapsed, he immediately got me out of town and stood by me. It was exactly what I needed. He's meant more to me than any other man I've dated."

Sophie to focus on modelling career? - Oct 3 2007
Sophie Anderton has apparently vowed to take a step back from her TV career following a string of reality show appearances.

The model reportedly told the Daily Express: "I’m going back to my roots - modelling full time. No more distractions, no more TV work. Modelling is what I do best.

Sophie, 30, was known as Me-Me by presenters and the media when she appeared on ITV’s Love Island alongside Lady Victoria Hervey and former Boyzone star Shane Lynch last year, due to her emotional behaviour.

The stunning brunette has also taken part in I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and Cirque de Celebrite, from which she was forced to make an early exit after damaging her ligaments.

The former underwear model has reportedly decided that the public might have got the wrong impression of her, and wants to devote herself to her modelling career.

Sophie’s movie role cut down? - Mar 11 2007
Sophie Anderton might have to put her dreams of Hollywood superstardom on hold, after her film debut was apparently chopped to just one second of screen time.

It seems the model-turned-reality TV star had thought she would launch a successful acting career after landing a part in the movie Popcorn, a British comedy about a teenager obsessed with a cinema usherette.

But an insider told the Daily Express that Sophie’s role is now a minimal one.

"Blink and you’ll miss her. She’ll be waiting a long time before Hollywood calls," the source said.

The 29-year-old brunette had reportedly bragged: "I am an actress and this project is very exciting. I play the lead cameo role in the film - a serial killer. I get to chase off a man with a 12-inch knife."

Film bosses apparently claim they dropped some of Sophie’s footage because it "slowed down" the action in the flick, which also stars former EastEnder Jack Ryder.

Sophie quits the circus - Nov 20 2006
Supermodel Sophie Anderton has quit Cirque De Celebrite after injuring herself.

She was carried off the reality TV show after damaging her ligaments, the Sun reports.

The model was in agony after the accident and has refused to carry on with the Sky One series.

But a source on the show told the paper, "There have been all sorts of upsets" - and suggested Sophie wanted to leave because of feuding with the other celebs.

The remaining contestants on the Ruby Wax-fronted contest include Grace Adams-Short from Big Brother and Blazin’ Squad’s Kenzie.
