The 43-year-old supermodel - who is married to Rande Gerber - hopes people still think she's sexy, even though she is now mother to two children, Presley, 10, and Kaia, seven.

She said: "I don't want to be a cougar, I want to be a milf. I hate that word cougar and what it represents. Milf is a word I absolutely love.

"I like that tag because I think there is a worry for all models that the moment you have kids the perception of you is going to change."

A 'milf' is an abbreviated slang term used to describe a sexy woman who has children.

Cindy says her personality has been affected by the ageing process and doesn't believe people find her as attractive as they once did.

She said in an interview with Britain's GQ magazine: "Age can be daunting, but you can't stop it. I know 20-year-old guys don't look at me anymore. I don't feel it like I used to.

"I remember walking down streets in New York at the height of my modelling career, my hair up, and all the construction guys would go crazy. It's different now."
