Broody Billie strips again... but keeps her stockings on

Actress Billie Piper is getting a bit of a reputation for getting her clothes off – but on this occasion at least she kept her stockings on.

Billie, 25 - currently playing a high-class hooker in ITV2's The Secret Diary of a Call Girl - stripped to little more than a man-sized cotton shirt and a pair of hold-up stockings for a glossy magazine photoshoot.

But despite her often raunchy appearance, she told Marie Claire magazine of her desire to settle down in the country with fiancé Laurence Fox.

And she has already quit her London home to move into a £1million house in the Sussex countryside.

She said: "I'm incredibly broody at the moment, which is the first time I've ever really felt that way.

"I think it's quite nice being broody."

Billie's growing desire to have children is perfect timing as the actress is reportedly planning a New Year's Eve wedding.

The star of the new ITV drama The Secret Diary Of A Call Girl has reportedly told her friends and family to keep the date free and has sent out 'save the date' cards to reinforce the message.

Laurence, 29, and former Dr Who actress Billie met earlier this year when they co-starred in West End play Treats.

Now 25-year-old Billie is said to be in talks with a celebrity magazine to cover the nuptials near her home in Sussex.

A source said: "The cat's out of the bag.

"Billie had to announce the date because her friends were making plans for New Year's Eve."

The guest list will include Billie's ex-husband, DJ Chris Evans, and his new bride, golf pro Natasha Shishmanian.

"Billie wants Chris there and Laurence is fine with that," said a pal.

"She wants it to be the mother of all parties, so she's having it on New Year's Eve.

"She thinks a magazine deal will keep the paparazzi away."
