When asked if she'd ever want to model again in the future, Leslie exclusively said: "No, no, it's too much. No, no, I don't think I would enjoy it now. I always say never say never but, no, that was quite tough.
"There was a lot of traveling. A lot of traveling. And, you know, models in those days didn't get treated that well. I mean, we didn't get treated that badly either, but…"
She continued: "It was good to learn some skills actually of you know, how to work with the camera. I've
worked with some fantastic photographers, even David Bailey I worked with.
"I've been very lucky working with people. And you just shut up and listen to what they've got to say. And you'll learn."
However, Leslie did announce that she would love to do more acting in the future and eyes up a Netflix role.
The actress confessed: "I'd love to do something like Bridgeton. Oh gosh, I love all the costumes and everything like that.
"I just love it. And with acting, it keeps your brain active when you have to learn lines."
