The 36-year-old grandmother says there is no secret to retaining her remarkable figure -although it may have something to do with the work involved in looking after her enormous family. She and husband John, a 42-year-old lorry driver, feed and look after 11 of their children at their four-bedroom home in Guernsey.
And now they are expecting again. Mrs Watson, who is 5ft 2in tall, has a 23in waist and weighs just 7st 3lb, has always been petite.
Before the birth of her first child, she was a size six. And miraculously she was back in her old jeans days after giving birth. Now she is even smaller at a size four — the controversial size zero in the US My friends would ask me what the secret was but I don’t have one. “It’s not something I boast about — it’s always just happened.
I guess I’m just naturally slim. And of course there is a lot of running around when you have a family as big as ours, so that probably burns off a few calories too.” She added: “I sometimes get into trouble by borrowing stuff from my daughters’ wardrobes.”
