Episode Description

EP64 Runners Only! with Dom Harvey & Rachel Hunter

Rachel Hunter was a secondary school student in Auckland when she was "discovered" by a photographer. She soon became one of the world’s most in-demand models, earning a reputation only a handful of people had, the title of “supermodel.“

So, what business does she have being on a podcast called Runners only? Glad you asked! She literally was out running when she was “discovered.”

This conversation was so enjoyable. We cover a lot of ground including the moment she quit school to become a model- great story…it involves a phone call to the school office landline while she was mid math’s exam.

Her reflections on Andy Hayden and how she got a gruff ex All Black to be her manager (Spoiler: it was a lot harder than you'd think).

We chat about the iconic Trumpet ad, posing for Playboy and staring in the iconic Stacie’s mom music video.

Why she has never read the chapter about herself in the Rod Stewart autobiography. We talk about Rod a lot…probably way more than she was comfortable with- sorry Rach!! LOL

The death of her mum, becoming a grandmother, menopause and much much more.
