She was privately educated as a child and went on to date British royalty, David, Viscount Linley, during the 1980s.
Constantine has been involved in fashion for a long time, first serving in America with Giorgio Armani and then London's John Galliano.
Trinny Woodall first met Trinny Woodall in 1994, with whom she and her partner Dave Leopolsky began to write a weekly fashion column titled Ready to Wear.
They founded Ready2shop.com, a dot-com fashion consultancy firm, and wrote their first fashion guide book in 2000, called Ready 2 Dress, which failed.
From there, they were hired to BBC Two to host What Not to Wear, from 2001 to 2005.
Following her success on the show, she went on to co-host Trinny & Susannah Undress... on ITV in 2006 and 2007 as a style advisor. She has co-written fashion advice books with Woodall, some of which have become best-sellers in the United Kingdom and the United States.
According to estimates, her various style advice books have sold 2.5 million copies in Britain and the United States.
Constantine and Woodall also produced their own clothing collection for Littlewoods, which was released in 2007 and their latest fashion advice book, The Body Shape Bible, followed.
Early life
Constantine was born in Hammersmith and raised in Knipton, a tiny village in Leicestershire. Joseph Constantine, her father, was an Old Etonian who served as an officer in the Coldstream Guards. He was a member of a Yorkshire landed gentry family whose roots date back to the 1100s. Marie Leonie Francoise (née van Haaren), a Dutch princess, descends from Dutch prince William the Silent.
Education
Constantine was educated at boarding schools, including Queen's Gate School in South Kensington, London, and St Mary's School in Wantage, Oxfordshire, which was operated by Anglican nuns. She was first admitted to boarding school at the age of 11 years and remembers her first night away from home: "I sobbed uncontrollably into my pillow."
Constantine recalled how she was sent a letter from St Mary's School in mid-2007, urging her to return to the school to address her work and learning to current students. Constantine's letter was immediately turned down, with the message stating "No fucking way" on the letter she had received.
Personal life
Constantine used to rely on her father's fashion advice when she was young, and she has expressed that any style she has obtained from him. He was a natural artist and was shown world art exhibitions, but he was too modest to accept. His death occurred suddenly, and Constantine's was a turning point.
Constantine's mother, David Armstrong-Jones, became a fixture in British gossip columns and newspapers in the 1980s as a result of her eight-year friendship with Princess Margaret's son, Viscount Linley. Constantine confessed that her Linley friendship had unquestionably opened doors for her, but that she was keen to get to the bottom of it and be well-known in her own right. In 1992, she dated Imran Khan, then a cricketer and playboy, later Prime Minister of Pakistan. She also visited Pakistan during the briefing of the friendship. Sten Bertelsen, a Danish entrepreneur and businessman who founded Death cigarettes with whom she has three children, was married in Constantine; Joe, Esme, and CeCe. In Sussex, Constantine and her family purchased a 120-acre (0.49 km2) farm.
Constantine has discussed the constant pressure to look good in public, but she claims, "We're as much in the fashion business as well as supporting other women to do so." Constantine has confessed to a fear of getting older: "I don't want to get old." Older women are invisible, and I don't want to be invisible," she has said.
Constantine and Woodall were the victims of gem thefts in 2002, while on a visit to the Cannes Film Festival. The robbers broke into the villa on the French Riviera where they were staying, rendered Constantine and Woodall unconscious with chloroform, and then proceeded to steal money and jewelry.
In 2003, Carol Vorderman was involved in a feud with Constantine and Woodall. After having called her a "overdone Eighties plight" and listed Vorderman as "Tranny and the Horse," Vorderman sluggishly referred to her as "tree and the Man" after they had branded her a "overdoned" and named Vorderman on their list of the 20 worst-dressed celebrities.
Constantine was one of 200 public figures to sign a letter opposing Scottish independence in August 2014, the campaign leading up to the referendum in September.
She adores cyclists so much that she would run her own husband out on Lycra's road in August 2020. Constantine said, "I hate cycling, but I won't cycle." No, I fuckeding hate cyclists. My husband is a cyclist, and I'm going to run him over on the road.
Early career
After leaving school, Constantine began studying sculpture in Brussels but then moved to other ventures. She later said that she "lost [her] virginity" had gone a bit mad" at this point. Constantine had taught children for three years and then worked as a Harrods shop girl. She wrote a book on present giving, which prompted The Daily Telegraph to publish an article implying she had never done a day's work in her life, something that had greatly surprised her. "I've always worked," she said.
She worked for Giorgio Armani in America as a shop girl. She returned to London later in life, working for designers such as Richard James, Patrick Cox, Alistair Blair, and John Galliano, which gave her a sense of fashion. She first began volunteering with the British Brain and Spine Foundation and then met The Daily Telegraph's sports editor. Constantine was ordered to announce the women's World Cup Final in cricket while filming for GMTV. She began to write about cars and then fashion.
She first met Trinny Woodall at a party hosted by David Armstrong-Jones, Viscount Linley, in 1994. The two women created Ready to Wear, a weekly style guide published in The Daily Telegraph for seven years. The column showcased inexpensive high-street fashion, and they illustrated which clothing best suited which figure. Ready2shop.com's co-founders, Constantine and Woodall, but the company suffered, and investors lost a reported £10 million.
Constantine's debut on television when Granada Sky Broadcasting hired her and Woodall to host Ready to Wear, a daytime shopping show, and the first fashion advice book, Ready 2 Dress, was published in 2000. The book was unsuccessful and resulted in the pulping of 13,000 copies. They received a regular makeover slot on the show Richard & Judy, right away from the beginning of their television careers. It ensured that they had more exposure in television and drew the attention of Jane Root, the BBC Two's chief, who hired them after their book venture and their internet marketing efforts floundering badly.
