Ruth Langsford's agent is probably the one she shares with her husband, and, indeed, he/she does a great job promoting both of them. I think she appeals to many women because of her age. Is she a role model for some people? I don't want a chunky jumper, anyway. I'm chunky enough myself!
I don't like the way Jane, the mother, stares into the middle distance when she models on QVC. Also, I dislike how mother and daughter always agree wholeheartedly how comfortable and wearable all Ruth's clothes are. I suppose they have to answer in the affirmative as Ruth asks them directly to comment on her clothes while they are modeling.
You're right, they share the same management company as do many on ITV. I find the idea of middle aged women needing a role model quite ridiculous, there are quite a number of women I find inspirational but it stops there. There was a post on here a few months ago about the Russells, mother & daughter who model on the Q, Jane's Twitter page states that she's Mentor to many. Really? I also read somewhere that she has 38 inch hips so being spiteful I'm going take all that with a large spoonful of salt.
A lot of people like someone they ‘relate’ to that is why the likes of M&S pay vast sums to the Willoughby & Co. Daft I know & completely wasted on the likes of me and probably most of us.I like RL on TV but take little notice of her ‘clothing’ offer on QVC.Some people are so deluded about their abilities, on that note just been reading about Victoria B. ‘Celebrating’ 10 years in the fashion business @ LFW, we all know it is loosing money hand over fist.Anyone else would crawl away & hide under a stone.
