LONDON, Sept 4 (AFP) - "Titanic" actress Kate Winslet has been voted Britain's sexiest mother, according to a poll published Sunday.
The star of the blockbuster disaster movie sailed to victory, edging out Hollywood star Gwyneth Paltrow (sixth) and former Spice Girls singer Victoria Beckham (fourth) in a "yummy mummy" poll by baby feeding accessories group Avent.
Winslet, 30, is mother to Mia, four, and 21-month-old Joe.
Supermodels Elle Macpherson (seventh) and Liz Hurley (ninth) were also left trailing in the film star's wake.
An Avent spokeswoman said: "Kate Winslet is Britain's top yummy mummy because, while she is beautiful, she has a down-to-earth attitude and isn't bothered about the usual trappings of celebrity."
In second place came giant-chested model Jordan, back in hotpants weeks after giving birth to her second child, while BBC television presenter Tess Daly came third.
The survey of new mums was carried out for National Yummy Mummy Week, starting September 16 in aid of Britain's leading children's cancer charity CLIC Sargent.
