More quotes by Britt Ekland
I met Peter Sellers when I was 21 and we got married ten days later. He was not right mentally, but I hung in there for four years before I left.
Britt Ekland
I used to smoke cigarettes, ten a day, but gave up when I was 28. Now my vice is several cups of coffee a day, which isn't great if you're prone to weak bones as I am, as caffeine can leach calcium.
Britt Ekland
I am as far from a hypochondriac as you could ever be.
Britt Ekland
I've been doing Pilates since 1974, I lift weights, I power walk every day and I run backwards. That's sometimes a little hard when you're not on your home turf, because you've got to find a place where there are no bumps in the way - or people.
Britt Ekland
Little bitty bags are completely impractical - I like big slouchy bags because they have to be comfortable for my lovely wee Chihuahua Tequila, who comes everywhere with me. I'm devoted to him, now my kids have long since flown the nest.
Britt Ekland
I say I don't sleep with married men, but what I mean is that I don't sleep with happily married men.

I am planning my one woman show. It will be a showcase of my life. It starts at the beginning and ends where I am today. It will have every single inch of my life - as much as you can get into an hour. I will be touring everywhere.
Britt Ekland
I'm not scared of snakes, spiders or heights. I have three children as a mum, you can't be afraid of things like that.
Britt Ekland
I am good at down grading - I have found I can live the same lifestyle in a two-bedroom apartment as in a five-bedroom house.
Britt Ekland
I used to collect vintage clothing - exquisite lace dresses, embroidered shawls and ornate jewelry - but that's just not me any more.
Britt Ekland
I'd been a housewife and mother to our son Thomas Jefferson, and I was looking for a new career. So when my agent called and said a producer named Paul Elliott from E&B productions, the biggest panto company in the country at the time, wanted to meet me I agreed.
Britt Ekland
As for the stage fright, it never goes away. When I'm waiting in the wings to go on, it's agony every single time but I stay focused and I know that once I'm on stage it'll be fine I'll be in my happy little bubble.
Britt Ekland
I tried the Atkins diet in the Seventies when pregnant with my son, as I didn't want to pile on the pounds. Now, so long as I'm healthy, I don't care what my scales say.
Britt Ekland
I never really learned the value of money. My father didn't spoil me, but I think my grandparents did.
Britt Ekland
I believe you need scientific proof that something works before you entrust your health to it.
Britt Ekland
I was never particularly wild, just very busy and often didn't think about what I was putting into my body. Today things are very different. I stopped smoking in my late 30s I avoid wheat and gluten as this makes me feel bloated and sluggish exercise regularly and bounce out of bed.
Britt Ekland
I will do my best to entertain. That's what I am: an entertainer.
Britt Ekland
I would teach U.K. parents how to stop their children throwing litter. London is a beautiful city but its streets are disgusting.
Britt Ekland
I think I suffer from body dysmorphia - I don't see what other people see.
Britt Ekland
I own a home in Sweden, I rent in both Los Angeles and in Britain, and I'm constantly travelling.
