Supermodel Linda Evangelista and the advice she would give her younger self.

Kirsty Young talks to the legendary supermodel Linda Evangelista about listening to your parents, knowing your worth, and reflecting on leaving her marriage.

Kirsty Young talks to legendary supermodel Linda Evangelista about what she’s learned from her life so far. After a career spanning 40 years, in early September 2023 she released a retrospective book with photographer Steven Meisel. As one of the first international supermodels, she reflects on listening to your parents, the infamous “$10,000 a day” quote, knowing your worth, and she looks back on how it felt to leave her marriage. 

If you could have a conversation with your younger self, what would you tell them? In Young Again  Kirsty takes her guests back to the pivotal moments in their lives. Reflecting on what they wish they’d known at the time, and what they’ve learned along the way, she discovers the honest – and surprising – advice they’d give their younger selves.
