A SCOTS mum who found fame after flashing at a major sports event has told how other parents are jealous of her bikini body.
Heather McCartney, 36, hit headlines after she stripped off at the 2014 AFL Grand Final and spent the night in a police cell.
The former Playboy model, now based in Australia after emigrating from Ayrshire, still poses for major platforms and loves wearing skimpy outfits.
But her penchant for sexy snaps means some folk don’t share the same opinion at the school gates.
She said: “As a mum, I’ve definitely felt the judging eyes from other parents at the school pickup when I rock my tight, figure-hugging outfits.
“It’s as if they expect me to show up in baggy trackies just because I have a kid.
“But I say, ‘Naw, thanks’. I’m all about embracing my body and my style, no matter my age or what others think.
“If they want to stare, let them – I’m here to celebrate confidence and show that being a mum doesn’t mean losing your sass.
“After all, life’s too short to blend in when you can stand out.”
Her boldness also means that men often chance their luck at the worst times.
But that isn’t even her biggest red flag when it comes to fellas.
She said: “The most outrageous time had to be during spin class, when I was drenched in sweat and working hard.
“Mid-ride, a guy caught my eye, leaned in, and said, ‘I bet you’d look even better out of that workout gear.’
“It took me a second to process that he actually thought that was a good time for a line like that.
“Some people really need to work on their timing.”
Heather added: “A huge red flag for me is a guy who can’t handle a little playful teasing or banter.
“If he’s too uptight or takes himself too seriously, I’m out.
“I love a man who can keep it fun and flirtatious, but if he can’t handle a bit of playful pushback, it’s a major turn-off.
“Life’s too short not to embrace a little kink and spontaneity.”
