Dawn French is a hit with the fellas

Dawn French has lost weight and gained admirers.

The Psychoville actress recently lost an impressive three stone, and isn’t short of attention from the fellas since her divorce from funny-man Lenny Henry.

“I’ve got lots of interesting gentlemen callers – but I can make the choice,” she said.

“In fact I’m scrabbling for time on my own.”

Dawn also said she is trying to have fun now, after being married for 25 years.

‘I don’t even like to call it dating, like some teenager,’ she tells Woman.

‘It’s very strange finding out who you are as a romantic. I don’t feel like I am starting again, it’s just a new phase.

‘I’m trying to have a bit of fun every now and again. But I am not a predator, I am not going out looking.’
