There is a gallery of Debee Ashby magazine covers at the bottom of this listing

British Page 3, pin-up, softcore video, and glamour model legend Debee Ashby was one of a group of buxom models – including Samantha Fox and Linda Lusardi – who rose from the ranks of nude modeling for U.K. British Tabloid The Sun, to become household names in the United Kingdom during the 1980s.

Ashby – who was born in Meriden, Warwickshire, just outside of Coventry – began her career with a controversial modeling shoot for the December 1983 issue of British adult magazine Men Only. She was 16 years old at the time, posing topless in her school uniform together with her completely nude mother Anne Ashby. National newspaper The Sun heard about the magazine shoot and booked Ashby and her mom to repeat it for the tabloid’s Page Three readers. Because of the controversy, Ashby was immediately expelled from the independent grammar school King Henry VIII School, Coventry, before having the chance to sit for her O-level exams. Her mother Anne gave up modeling, but the notoriety of her story launched top heavy teen Debee Ashby into a full-time modelling career.

She was soon hitting making headlines for more than just modeling. Only a year later, at the age of 17, Debee found herself in a relationship with Hollywood movie legend Tony Curtis, who was 42 years her senior at the time. This wouldn’t be her last high profile relationship. Status Quo guitarist Rick Parfitt also famously fell for her curvaceous charms. Ashby has also been connected with U.K. gangster Reginald Kray, of the infamous Kray Twins, who were the foremost perpetrators of organized crime in the East End of London, England during the 1960’s and 1970’s.

At the same time as shooting raunchy videos for franchises like Electric Blue, and baring her all for magazines like Penthouse, Partner and Gent, Debee got regularly called on to make mainstream TV appearances, either as herself or in acting roles as the cheeky buxom blonde. Ashby married session musician Richard Mead in 1992, but the marriage ended two years later.

Debee Ashby retired from modeling in the mid 1990s, and moved to Douglas, on the Isle of Man, where she married Dave Wookey in 1999. The couple had a baby boy in 2000, but they later divorced. Ashby then lived with Johnny Mills.

As of 2023, the former model continues her business ventures on the Isle of Man, opening her own restaurant called Coasters. Ashby also operates a home development company called Jobee. How many of her regulars admit to recognizing one of the biggest British sex symbols of the 1980s? Debee is too modest to mention.
