Elle's smile says it all

After a string of setbacks, Elle "The Body" Macpherson looks as though she has well and truly bounced back.

The millionaire Australian model admitted she suffered post-natal depression after the birth of her second son, Cy, in February - and it was reported that she recently spent weeks in an exclusive Arizona rehabilitation clinic. She was absent from London Fashion Week and it seemed she might be withdrawing from public life.

But now the 39-year-old looks on top of the world.

A source at her model agency, Storm, said: "Elle is back on track after a short break to deal with stress and exhaustion. She has also taken some time out to be with her children. She will soon be resuming work at her lingerie business, which is doing better than ever."

Her businesses - including Bendon Underwear and her latest range, Elle Macpherson Intimates - have made her one of Australia's richest women, and the world's richest supermodel.

As she posed for photographs on her way to meet friends in Knightsbridge, she said: "I'm fine. There have been a lot of negative things written about me recently and it is not at all fair. Everything is great for me just now.

"I feel fabulous. I'm spending every weekend up north with my family and friends. I really appreciate people being positive about me at the moment."

Her personal assistant, Ingrid, said: "Elle is currently signing off her new range of lingerie for next year."
