Former Miss Bristol in the running to be crowned Miss England
A FORMER Miss Bristol, who achieved national fame after becoming glamour model Jordan's protege, is again in the running to become Miss England.
Amy Willerton, 19, who grew up in Westbury Park, was recently crowned Miss London.
It means she is now hot favourite to represent England at the Miss World Pageant.
The model recently won Miss Beauty and the Beach 2012, a qualifier in the pageant, and as her prize was flown to Thailand for a photo shoot with celebrity photographer Alan Strutt.

It also meant she was fast-tracked through to the final 15 in the Miss England final on Tuesday.
Ms Willerton gained national attention last year when she beat 10,000 girls to win Sky Living's Signed by Katie Price show.
But just a few months after being crowned the winner, the young model claimed in a tabloid interview that several of her prizes, including a modelling contract and use of a Range Rover, failed to materialise.
Price's Blacksheep Management later said Ms Willerton refused to work with them on an exclusive basis, as all contestants were told they would be required to do.
When Ms Willerton was accepted onto the TV show she was the reigning Miss Bath and was therefore in the running for Miss England last year.
But after filming began she had to relinquish her place in the contest.
The model and keen skier and surfer now wants to put that behind her and concentrate on Tuesday's final.
"For me this is kind of unfinished business," said Ms Willerton, who moved from Bristol to London in January.
"A few hundred girls entered the competition and I'm down to the final 15 so now I'm just hoping for a win."

“Hmmmmm, a fine looking filly for sure (big hair, mind you), she is clearly some-one trying to get ahead on her looks alone as her brain is likely to be under-sized to say the least.
Not really 'beautiful in the true sense of the word, more 'high maintenance' WAG wannabee.
Probably spends all day getting waxed, sprayed and plucked lol.
I'd go there once, then make my excuses and leave ;)”

“Do we really want someone who mixes with Jordan (Katie Price) to represent England?
Hope not!”

“Geeveeh you are dead right. I thought my memory was playing tricks, but as a teenager I remember "black" being thought offensive and so was replaced by "coloured". It was only last week I read that a BBC presenter had been ticked off for using "coloured*!.
As no Royal Proclamation was ever made of the change Ishall continue to you bothe as I find neither offensive and would anyway forget which one was currently fashionable.
P.S. Very nice girl. All the best to her!!”

“Pity this story is not about academic achievement or career progression in a worthwhile profession to inspire our young people rather than the glamourising of the personality cult!”

“I love seeing a bit of totty but I thought these sort of things had been stopped with sexual equality etc etc or have things moved on again just as in the 70's we were told to call a person,say from Africa as C....... and not B.... as B.... was racist whereas nowadays it is C...... that is racist and we have to say B.... It all really confuses we old people !”
