Getting handcuffed by this lingerie model may not necessarily be a good thing.

That’s because Sophia Adams is also a trainee police officer.

But the 21-year-old, from Harrow, north London, isn’t letting her rather serious job get in the way of her attempt to win the ‘Star In A Bra’ competition organised by Curvy Kate.

Posing in lingerie might actually help her police the streets better because it gives her greater self-belief.

‘I’m entering Star In A Bra because I finally have the confidence and would love to model for Curvy Kate,’ she said.

‘I used to have so many body hang ups, hated my size and wanted to change myself.

‘But as I get older I’m realising it’s all about self-love and treating your body like the temple it is.’

Ms Adams, who boasts a bust size of 32JJ, is battling for a place in the top ten alongside fellow curvy babes from all over the world and will be invited to London for a photoshoot if she gets through to the semi-final.

The eventual winner will receive a year-long modelling contract and an all-expenses paid trip to the Mediterranean.
