Jessica Ennis beats Kelly Brook in 'best female body' poll

Olympic champion Jessica Ennis has been named as having the 'best female body' from a poll conducted by bootcamp company Lifestyle247.

The heptathlete, who won gold in her event at the London 2012 Olympic Games in the summer, topped the list ahead of the likes of model Kelly Brook and US reality star Kim Kardashian.

The survey also claimed that 72% of women would prefer to have an athletic figure and that 35% of females feel 'repulsed' when they see skinny celebrities.

Meanwhile, Ennis is due to visit an independent bookshop in Fylde to do a signing of her latest book.
