Denise van Outen once flashed her bra at Prince Charles

The 47-year-old actress - who shot to fame as host of 'The Big Breakfast' back in the 1990s and has since gone on to a long career on stage and screen - admitted that she flashed her bra at the royal when he was greeting pop group Steps at Party in the Park back in 1999.

She said: "I marched over to the window of the marquee, and while the Prince was shaking hands with the members of Steps, I called out to him, then pulled up my top and flashed my bra."

The Basildon-born star - who these days is known for providing narrating reality seires'The Only Way is Essex' - went on to explain that she hadn't planned to flash at the Prince of Wales and joked that if she had she would have worn a classier bra.

She said: "I’m not sure what came over me, and it certainly wasn’t pre-meditated. If it had been, I’d have worn one of my posh bras rather than the Marks Spencer nude one my mum had got me!"

The 'Celebrity Gogglebox' alum - who met her now ex-husband Lee Mead when he was a contestant on and eventual winner of BBC talent show 'Any Dream Will Do' and has 11-year-old Betsy with him - admitted that she has such "good memories" of her party days in the 1990s but it is only now that she has taken the time to appreciate them.

Writing in her new autobiography 'A Bit Of Me: From Basildon To Broadway and Back', she said: "I have such good memories of those days...it’s undoubtedly true that, good or bad, people got away with a lot more as far as partying went." There were fabulous things happening all the time. It’s only now I can sit back and appreciate how incredible they actually were."
