Gail Porter has been told her hair may never grow back.

The TV beauty, who is suffering from stress-related alopecia, admitted she was shocked when doctors told her she could always be bald.

The 35-year-old said she was upset her three-year-old daughter may not remember her with long, blonde hair.

She is quoted in Britain’s The Sun newspaper as saying: “I suddenly thought, ‘Oh my God. My daughter Honey will never remember me ever having hair’.”

But the former ‘Top Of The Pops’ host revealed she’s getting used to her new look.

She said: “I’m still me at the end of the day. You just have to get a little bit of extra confidence.”

Gail also joked: “Sometimes when I get dressed I look like someone that walked off ‘Star Trek’.

“I feel like I should be popping on little pointy ears and a space suit.”
