Is Daisy Lowe trying to woo Mark Ronson back... or is this just a wardrobe malfunction?



Last updated at 12:18 AM on 15th September 2008

Wearing a tiny red dress, model Daisy Lowe shows ex-boyfriend DJ Mark Ronson what he's missing out on as she leaves the opening day of London Fashion Week.
But the 19-year-old showed a little more than she bargained for after her outfit got caught by her bag, exposing a racy black thong.
Perhaps the lingerie model tucked her dress in accidentally after a trip to the ladies' room.

Either that or she could be attempting to woo Ronson back.
Friends say the couple have split up over the 14-year age gap between them.

But Ronson, the pop guru behind Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen, is likely to be left with eyes watering when he sees this saucy snap.

Their sudden split follows a heated argument four days ago.
Daisy was on the catwalk yesterday at New York Fashion Week but last night boarded a flight back to the UK for a reunion with her mother, designer Pearl Lowe.
The lingerie model is lined up to appear in at least two shows at this week’s London Fashion Week and Ronson was expected to attend.
But a source said: ‘Mark is not coming to London. He and Daisy had a row over something small which escalated into something rather big.
‘Daisy got very upset and shot at Mark that she was leaving him. He completely surprised her by saying, “Fine, leave.” That was it. They haven’t spoken since the argument.
‘She has said it’s over and that the age difference was a big deal. She comes over as being very mature for her years and incredibly sophisticated but at heart she’s still a little girl who’s not ready to settle down.’
Daisy had moved to New York to pursue her career. The source added: ‘She has quite a few friends in New York and she’s deciding what to do about her future. Her career is going from strength to strength and she’s not sure if she’s ready to leave New York but she is adamant things are over with Mark for the time being.’
The couple were together just last week at Ronson’s 33rd birthday party at Hedsor House in Buckinghamshire.

Daisy was introduced to his family, who had flown over from New York, and told one partygoer: ‘I feel like a Ronson now. I’ve been playing with the nieces and nephews and being polite to Mark’s mum. I’m exhausted.’


But friends say Daisy is reluctant to settle down at such a young age.
A source said: ‘Despite his party-boy image, Mark’s quite serious and just wants to meet the right girl and settle down. That was an issue for Daisy, who is still quite young at heart.

‘They’re in different places at the moment and they both need some time and space to think about things. Mark’s at the top of his game. He’s very self-assured and confident and he knows what he wants. Daisy still has quite a lot of growing up to do.’
Daisy is the love child of Pearl Lowe and Bush star Gavin Rossdale, while Mark is the nephew of tycoon Gerald Ronson, who spent six months in jail over a share scandal.
Mark took Daisy to the Brits as his secret date in February when he won best male artist. They first stepped out publicly in April.
‘The attraction between Mark and Daisy was immediate. Mark really pursued her and wined and dined her. Ultimately they both want different things, though,’ added the friend. Daisy’s spokesman said last night: ‘Yes, they have split up but we are not making any further comment.’

Despite their apparent happiness the 14-year-age gap was 'an issue'

The mesmerising thing about Daisy Lowe is that she is very old and very young at the same time. She is 19, full of hormones and innocence, easily winces, yet she's strangely strong and emotionally tested. She doesn't have an obvious model's body - she's tall but voluptuous. We are sitting curled on sofas at her model agency, Select, in Camden Town. 'The muffins are cardboards,' she warns, being something of a cake connoisseur (her favourite is the Red Velvet Cake on offer in New York's Magnolia Bakery).
She lives in New York, but seems to be constantly flying back to London. Back for her boyfriend, the producer Mark Ronson's 33rd birthday: 'He's having two parties, one in New York and one in London.' And then there's New York Fashion Week and London Fashion Week. And she is in demand for both.
Today she's wearing a Red Stripe reggae T-shirt, pale jeans, thin-legged and old, purple canvas sneakers. She's a little sad. She doesn't want to hide that sadness. Yesterday she was at a funeral of one of her close friends' mother, who died after a long struggle with cancer. She talks about life and death with a kind of comfort. She scuttles between confident and poised and wounded. All of it draws you in.
Vivienne Westwood said of her: 'She's a bombshell and she has quite simply the best walk - confident and proud. She looks super sexy all the time. She's one of those lucky girls who never needs to try to be anything other than herself.'
Indeed, she has an enormous sense of self and an incredible rock'n'roll pedigree that perhaps informs it. She grew up as part of the Britpop Primrose Hill party set. Her mother is Pearl Lowe - once a singer, now a fashion designer, and a former heroin addict. Her stepfather is Danny Goffey, the drummer in Supergrass. Her biological father is Gavin Rossdale. This was revealed by DNA testing when she was 14. He was a close family friend and godfather to Lowe, but since the revelations and the birth of his own sons with Gwen Stefani he has kept a low profile. In her memoirs, All That Glitters, Pearl says Rossdale's name 'is banned in my household ... He's missing out on an amazing girl.'
Everything about Lowe is open. Still, she doesn't talk about Gavin. But the silence surrounding him is an open wound. Her emotions are transparent. Mention Class of 2008, a fly-on-the-wall documentary that aired on BBC2 earlier this year about angsty indie-style teenagers in Camden Town, which featured a spectacular break-up and terrifying love hangover between Lowe and her then boyfriend Will Cameron from the band Blondelle, and she absolutely winces. 'Aow-w-w,' she says. 'The producers told us they wanted it to be an inspirational programme about our lives. There was nothing about my career - and they said it would only be about our careers and not our personal lives. They had footage of me backstage at the Westwood show that they didn't use. Instead they had us bickering, with Will and me saying how much we love each other with Mark's music playing over the top. What's that about? It's disgusting.'
It was filmed six months ago, which is a long time in fashion, and in a 19-year-old's life. Since then she has been signed up for major campaigns. She is the new face for Converse, Karen Millen and, for a third season, Agent Provocateur. She is fearless when it comes to being naked or wearing skimpy underwear, or as Steven Klein made her, jumping into a freezing-cold bath of Gatorade. 'He also made me dye my hair blue and I had to go to hospital in the middle of a shoot because of an allergic reaction. I complied because it was Steven Klein and W magazine.'
She also ends up flying to and fro, from New York to London - a week here, a week there - 'so it's a bit stupid. I'm bored of planes. I think next year I'll move back to London.'
But doesn't Mark live in New York? 'Yes, but he comes and goes as well.' It sounds very fluid, but I'm beginning to think that Lowe might not love fluid.
When she was growing up, her mother Pearl called her 'a saviour'. At seven, eight, nine, Lowe would be changing nappies and looking after her two younger brothers, Alfie, 12 in October, and Frankie, nine. She has described herself as a Saffy-type character - the studious child of the crazy Edina in Ab Fab. 'My mum was crazy. My only way to rebel was to be really normal. I loved chemistry and psychology. I won a chemistry quiz and got given a forensic scientist's uniform,' she says excitedly. Was that when you were a little girl? 'I was 15. So at the same age as doing all this science stuff, I did the Agent Provocateur perfume campaign and I did get a Saturday job, in AP. I worked in the store room upstairs, but I still got the pink uniform.'
She was all set to totally rebel against her mother by being a geek. Perhaps she would have stayed geeky had her mother not decided to change her life, get rid of the drugs, move out of London to Hampshire. Lowe stayed with her grandparents while she was doing her A levels. Lowe and Pearl's relationship was a bond too deep, though.
'I couldn't handle being away from my mum, and I got quite a lot of job offers, so I thought I could leave school and do the qualifications later; do a couple of jobs and then spend more time with my mum because I felt so lost without her.'
Now she seems to be working all the time and living in New York. 'It's true, I hardly get any time with her at all now, but in the beginning it was different. I am sad that I can't be with my brothers and sister so much. It really does upset me, so I'm going to do this now and have loads of time with them later when I'm sat on a big pile of money.'
I tell her it doesn't work like that. Modelling is addictive. Money is never enough. Her model agent, Sarah Leon, who discovered Agyness Deyn and started Sienna Miller as a model, says: 'Fashion is a business about selling clothes, and Daisy does that better than anyone of her generation.'
Lowe curls herself more into the sofa. 'I like knowing how things work, and that is the gist of science,' she says, not really wanting to commit to the idea of having any ambition at all as a supermodel. 'I have a real maternal instinct, and that's my downfall. I end up mothering everyone. When Alfie was born I was only about seven. I remember waking up at 6am, which was when he would wake up, and getting him his first bottle. I would stay with him, watching Rugrats for hours. And when it wasn't a schoolday, hours and hours and hours. Then Mum would wake up in the afternoon and say: "What's happened to the baby?" I can remember her being sick, but she was a great mother. Definitely we had some serious role reversals, but now I run to my mum with problems and she runs to me with hers, too. I do see the change in her since she decided to get clean, but I never really moved back home when she was clean because that was when she moved to Hampshire.'
She had no idea that her mother was taking drugs. 'When I found out it was sort of a release because until then I just thought: "Why is she always sick, what's wrong with her?" I would never be able to have a baby and take drugs. I was scared when I was younger because she was always ill.'
She says she won't be following in the family tradition. Pearl had Lowe when she was 18. 'That's why I've got a dog. Actually I do really want to have kids, and for a long time I wanted to have kids kind of soon, but in the past six months I've given it serious thought. I wouldn't want to bring a child into this world unless I can give it exactly what it needs. I want to be totally selfless, and right now I'm just too selfish.'
Have you talked to Mark about babies? 'No, we haven't got to that point. There's a 13-year age gap, but there are lots of times when I feel more mature than he is. I have never thought that age mattered. My mum is 18 years older than me, and I act older than she does. I think with Mark it's a good dynamic: we teach each other different things from different perspectives. But I guess I'm a mature teenager and he's an immature adult,' she says with a grin that is both silly and knowing. 'Anyway, I'm a true believer in life after death. I think you live loads of lives and you are as old as your soul is. When I met Mark it was like, wow, I've known you for years and I've only been talking to you for five minutes. And it was the same with Will. I still love Will, you know. I will love Will forever.' She winces some more, remembering Class of 2008.
When we meet she's not sure who she'll be modelling for during this week's London Fashion Week. 'I will be doing PPQ. Amy [Molyneaux] and Percy [Parker] because they're good friends of mine. If anyone else wants me they can ask. The thing is I'm not teeny-weeny stick sample size so I don't want to go along to the cattle castings and not fit into any of the clothes. Show size is very small and I eat doughnuts and Red Velvet. I love curvaciousness. Curvy girls are the sexiest girls. If clothes were built for curvier women, which is most of the population, one: people would look better; two: designers would sell more clothes, and three: they wouldn't have to use tiny anorexic models.' She refuses to get into a size-zero spiral, or even a serious gym addiction - she keeps meaning to go to Bikram Yoga but never gets round to it - but does go swimming and salsa dancing.
Her nonconformity to the emaciated is the reason she has been offered another Agent Provocateur campaign. 'I only ever really wear AP underwear. I've got the pants on - look.' She shows me little lacy knickers poking out from under her jeans and at the same time reveals an angel-riding-on-a-heart tattoo carrying a little banner. 'Have you seen True Romance? It's the tattoo that Patricia Arquette and Christian Slater get. They get married and then they get this tattoo. They get their names put in, but I will never fill mine in, only with a Biro. Mark does not have a matching one.' Today there is nothing written in the banner of the heart.
In relationships is she the one who likes to love most or is loved most? 'With Will I probably loved the most. With Mark it's probably balanced. He is a Virgo and together we are compelled to caretake. It's the first relationship I have been in where we are equals. One day he'll be more loving, and another day I'll be.'
Do you live together? 'We've only been dating four months ... I guess Will and I moved in together after three, but it's so different being with somebody who is older. There are more factors. With Will it was like, let's do it, because we're both young and we live at home.' She doesn't say it, but it seems like with Will she got a little burnt and now she's a little more cautious. Is Mark the one? 'You can't say that. I'm 19.'
They are working on a song that they will perform together at her mother's wedding. 'They've been together for 13 years. I think they just want a party. I'm going to sing; he's going to play guitar. Danny is my stepdad, but I call him my dad,' she says very pointedly. She goes on to talk about Danny, saying he's been 'an amazing teacher' and introduced her to music and films she has loved. 'And now I'm old enough, both of us can go out and party together.'
Lowe is pretty amazing. She's funny and warm and good company. It seems such a shame Gavin Rossdale has missed out on all of this, and strange, as apparently as a godparent he was attentive and a good friend to the family. Lowe had grown up thinking Bronner Handwerger, a holistic doctor from New York, was her dad. She was rather saddened when they met and she didn't really connect with him. But he had written a book, Eat Right for Your Blood Type, and when Lowe suggested Pearl go on the diet for type O she didn't lose any weight. Then Pearl discovered she wasn't type O. Science-geek Lowe realised that if her mother wasn't O, Handwerger wasn't her father.
Still onwards and upwards, she now has a prestigious acting agent and a burgeoning passion for film, and she nearly got a couple of parts. 'The last one I almost got was Hippie Hippie Shake, which Sienna Miller got,' she says, slightly bemused as to why there'd be any similarity between a short blonde and a 5ft 11in brunette. But she smiles. 'I'm just going to go where the wind takes me, which hopefully at some point will involve sleep and no planes for a while.'
 
wow, just wow.
that was an amazing read. thank you.
true romance? i love her even more now!!!
she seems completely different from how i thought she was like.
i love her.
 
Wow, thanks for that.

She's an interesting girl. The interview is quite a lot more pointed now that she has split with Mark Ronson.

I guess all the people who harp on about her size and her tendancy to only do catwalk for friends of the family now have their explanations.

Daisy Lowe is back with her ex...but it's not Mark Ronson

Daisy Lowe was back in the arms of her ex last night — but we’re sad to report that it was not her former squeeze Mark Ronson.
The 19-year-old model has found solace in the arms of her ex-boyfriend Will Cameron, and headed back to his place last night after attending a London Fashion Week show.

She split up with DJ Mark last week, it was revealed yesterday, after just six months together.

The pair were out separately on the London party scene last night, but Daisy opted to head to singer Will’s pad in Baker Street.

She went to the PPQ catwalk show at the Natural History Museum, but failed to show at the afterparty.

Our source tells us: 'Daisy was late flying in from New York, so the show was held up to wait for her.

'Her friends were also left waiting at the aftershow party and they later found out she had gone to Will’s place.

'She went to see Will for a shoulder to cry on. She’s been really upset over the last few days after her split from Mark.'

Our source added: 'Daisy never lost touch with Will, and has always remained close friends with him. They have always been close, and Will was pining after her when she dumped him for Mark.'

Woah — rebound alert. We hope Daisy doesn’t do anything rash.

Will, 21, who fronts the band Blondelle, said of Daisy shortly before their split in February: 'I love her more than I have ever loved anyone or anything.'

But she clearly didn’t share his enthusiasm, ditching him for Mark.

The reason for the split with Mark is unclear.
It was reported that they were having a row that got out of control, with Daisy saying she’d had enough and was leaving Mark.
He is said to have replied: 'Fine, leave.'

They were one of the most loved-up couples on the celeb circuit, so we’re sure we haven’t heard the last of this.

Daisy had moved to New York to pursue her career. The source added: ‘She has quite a few friends in New York and she’s deciding what to do about her future. Her career is going from strength to strength and she’s not sure if she’s ready to leave New York but she is adamant things are over with Mark for the time being.’

The couple were together just last week at Ronson’s 33rd birthday party at Hedsor House in Buckinghamshire.

Daisy was introduced to his family, who had flown over from New York, and told one partygoer: ‘I feel like a Ronson now. I’ve been playing with the nieces and nephews and being polite to Mark’s mum. I’m exhausted.’

But friends say Daisy is reluctant to settle down at such a young age.

A source said: ‘Despite his party-boy image, Mark’s quite serious and just wants to meet the right girl and settle down. That was an issue for Daisy, who is still quite young at heart.

'They’re in different places at the moment and they both need some time and space to think about things. Mark’s at the top of his game. He’s very self-assured and confident and he knows what he wants. Daisy still has quite a lot of growing up to do.’

Daisy is the love child of Pearl Lowe and Bush star Gavin Rossdale, while Mark is the nephew of tycoon Gerald Ronson, who spent six months in jail over a share scandal.

Mark took Daisy to the Brits as his secret date in February when he won best male artist. They first stepped out publicly in April.

‘The attraction between Mark and Daisy was immediate. Mark really pursued her and wined and dined her. Ultimately they both want different things, though,’ added the friend. Daisy’s spokesman said last night: ‘Yes, they have split up but we are not making any further comment.’


Despite their apparent happiness the 14-year-age gap between Daisy and Mark Ronson was 'an issue'
