Caprice says 'I've cheated on my husband' in shock confession
Caprice Bourret is taking the romcom scene by storm, having already produced, starred in, and sold the screening rights to three films. The model-turned-actress, 53, has just finished her fourth film, marking another milestone in her flourishing career. Chatting exclusively with OK! from sunny Ibiza, Caprice shares that these achievements rank highly on her list of proudest moments, second only to her two sons, Jax and Jett. With the boys growing up, she's diving headfirst back into work and loving every minute of it. 'I'm getting better every time, and I'm getting a reputation,' she says, from the set location of her latest movie, A Royal Romance In Ibiza. 'Some people respect me, some people don't like me because they just don't like me, but I am so proud of what I'm doing. I'm working hard and it's paying off'. Here, she tells us more about her exciting film career… I won't beat around the bush here, but I don't care what people say. I'm really proud of what I've done. As a woman, and especially a woman at 53, I want to make good movies. I'm not only doing it, but I sell in 25 different countries, for a budget where I can see a return. For people out there scared to move forward for whatever reason I say, 'If you have a dream, don't worry about the obstacles, go out and do it'. I think I was scared to. Being a model and in my forties, I thought things were finished. But actually with age comes confidence and experience, and now I don't work harder, I work smarter. I'm finally doing what I've always wanted to do. I think I did care what people said, 10 or 15 years ago. Yes, and I think we'd be idiots if we didn't admit it. But let's show everyone that we shouldn't be scared of our age or the fact we're women, or maybe mothers. I don't say, 'I don't care what people think' in an arrogant or disrespectful way, I say it because I want to be an inspiration, I want to show people that regardless of the obstacles, self-imposed or not, we can do it. I've got a great team, that makes a huge difference. I work very efficiently, I'm smarter, I'm better – that comes with experience. My career took a backseat for many years so I could be a mommy, but I want to have a career and I want to work, so I make it work. I was very naive coming into it, I had no idea how hard or time-consuming it would be. Pre-production usually takes me about three-and-a-half months and that's working non-stop every day securing locations, booking actors, organising plane tickets, catering, hotel booking, transport, everything. And then dealing with the traumas on set. We were filming two of five scenes in a restaurant here for this one, and the restaurant manager comes over and says, 'you have to get out, we're fully booked now and I'm not going to lose this kind of money'. So I called my friends and called a few restaurants, and found somewhere to finish the scenes and we didn't lose a day! That's what I mean by working smart. Initially my team will make the first call. If the agent's being difficult, I'll jump in. Then if the agent's being really difficult, I'll find the number of the actor and call them myself! It's ballsy but you've got to do what you've got to do. I remember the first smooch I did. I was so awkward and thought, 'Oh God, I've cheated on my husband!'. But there's always smooching. It's quite a robotic process. With this one, I said to Matt, 'I love this scene in this movie, let's watch it and break it down. You're going to look at me like we're crazy about each other, come closer, touch my cheek, then a very, very slow smooch, then break away and look at me for about three seconds'. That's it, no romance at all. Well, when you have to snog in front of 60 people it's a bit awkward, and of course because my kids have been in my movies, they have to watch me snog somebody! I mean Ty is the love of my life and has no insecurities whatsoever, he finds it all entertaining, but it took Jett a minute. Look, if someone comes to my production and demands this and that and yada, yada, yada, they're going to look like a schmuck. I want people to enjoy working, we have a laugh, I'm not precious about anything. It's not like there's a crazy amount of money in this, I'm doing this because I have a passion for it and I want to make things that myself and my kids are proud of. I have no time for egos. If I said my face was all natural, everyone would know I'm a freaking liar! I love sharing my secrets. I wear SPF 70 every single day, I don't tan from the sun, I get fake tans, and I love Botox, it's fabulous. But I've recently discovered the best thing ever, called CO2 Fractional Laser. It totally tightens the skin, I had so many wrinkles under my eyes but they're all gone. It's insane. I used to take 32 supplements but I'm down to about 20 now. I gave up carbs in January and after the craving went away, I felt fabulous. I've lost about 20lbs since then. It's the first time I've lost weight since the boys were born. But more importantly, I feel really good!

Caprice says 'I've cheated on my husband' in shock movie admission
Caprice Bourrett has a lot of feathers in her cap - and now she can add moviemaker to them, as she opens up about 'awkward' on-set snogs, Hollywood egos and her best-kept beauty secret After conquering the world of lingerie and homewares, Caprice Bourret is now well on her way to becoming the film world 's unofficial queen of romcoms. She's already produced, starred in and – more importantly for business-savvy Caprice – successfully sold the screening rights to three films so far, and has just wrapped on her fourth. For the entrepreneur, model and actress, 53, as she tells OK! during an exclusive catch-up from Ibiza, it's her proudest achievement to date – afte r her two sons Jax and Jett. Now that the boys, who she shares with her husband Ty Comfort, are approaching their teenage years, she's '100% back in the workforce' and relishing every moment. 'I'm getting better every time, and I'm getting a reputation,' she says, from the set location of her latest movie, A Royal Romance In Ibiza. 'Some people respect me, some people don't like me because they just don't like me, but I am so proud of what I'm doing. I'm working hard and it's paying off'. Here, she tells us more about her exciting film career… How have people's opinions changed from your first film to this one? I won't beat around the bush here, but I don't care what people say. I'm really proud of what I've done. As a woman, and especially a woman at 53, I want to make good movies. I'm not only doing it, but I sell in 25 different countries, for a budget where I can see a return. For people out there scared to move forward for whatever reason I say, 'If you have a dream, don't worry about the obstacles, go out and do it'. Do you wish you'd started sooner? I think I was scared to. Being a model and in my forties, I thought things were finished. But actually with age comes confidence and experience, and now I don't work harder, I work smarter. I'm finally doing what I've always wanted to do. I think I did care what people said, 10 or 15 years ago. Is there a lot of ageism in the film industry – both in front and beyond the camera? Yes, and I think we'd be idiots if we didn't admit it. But let's show everyone that we shouldn't be scared of our age or the fact we're women, or maybe mothers. I don't say, 'I don't care what people think' in an arrogant or disrespectful way, I say it because I want to be an inspiration, I want to show people that regardless of the obstacles, self-imposed or not, we can do it. You've already made two films this year with your JJLove Productions company, how do you find the stamina?! I've got a great team, that makes a huge difference. I work very efficiently, I'm smarter, I'm better – that comes with experience. My career took a backseat for many years so I could be a mommy, but I want to have a career and I want to work, so I make it work. You're executive producing as well as acting now – what does that entail? I was very naive coming into it, I had no idea how hard or time-consuming it would be. Pre-production usually takes me about three-and-a-half months and that's working non-stop every day securing locations, booking actors, organising plane tickets, catering, hotel booking, transport, everything. And then dealing with the traumas on set. What sort of traumas?! We were filming two of five scenes in a restaurant here for this one, and the restaurant manager comes over and says, 'you have to get out, we're fully booked now and I'm not going to lose this kind of money'. So I called my friends and called a few restaurants, and found somewhere to finish the scenes and we didn't lose a day! That's what I mean by working smart. When it comes to booking the cast – are you making the calls yourself as 'Caprice the exec producer'? Initially my team will make the first call. If the agent's being difficult, I'll jump in. Then if the agent's being really difficult, I'll find the number of the actor and call them myself! It's ballsy but you've got to do what you've got to do. There's a fair bit of kissing in your films, how do you find that side of acting? I remember the first smooch I did. I was so awkward and thought, 'Oh God, I've cheated on my husband!'. But there's always smooching. It's quite a robotic process. With this one, I said to Matt, 'I love this scene in this movie, let's watch it and break it down. You're going to look at me like we're crazy about each other, come closer, touch my cheek, then a very, very slow smooch, then break away and look at me for about three seconds'. That's it, no romance at all. Do you ever get camera-shy on set? Well, when you have to snog in front of 60 people it's a bit awkward, and of course because my kids have been in my movies, they have to watch me snog somebody! I mean Ty is the love of my life and has no insecurities whatsoever, he finds it all entertaining, but it took Jett a minute. What about the bigger actor names you're working with now – any Hollywood egos? Look, if someone comes to my production and demands this and that and yada, yada, yada, they're going to look like a schmuck. I want people to enjoy working, we have a laugh, I'm not precious about anything. It's not like there's a crazy amount of money in this, I'm doing this because I have a passion for it and I want to make things that myself and my kids are proud of. I have no time for egos. You mentioned earlier that you are 53, you certainly don't look it… If I said my face was all natural, everyone would know I'm a freaking liar! I love sharing my secrets. I wear SPF 70 every single day, I don't tan from the sun, I get fake tans, and I love Botox, it's fabulous. But I've recently discovered the best thing ever, called CO2 Fractional Laser. It totally tightens the skin, I had so many wrinkles under my eyes but they're all gone. It's insane. And what about your health on the inside? I used to take 32 supplements but I'm down to about 20 now. I gave up carbs in January and after the craving went away, I felt fabulous. I've lost about 20lbs since then. It's the first time I've lost weight since the boys were born. But more importantly, I feel really good!
