Britain’s Next Top Model is set to feature its first transgender contestant in 2017.

Talulah-Eve Brown has been confirmed as one of 12 participants taking part in Series 11, alongside the likes of BRIT school’s Tallulah Bluebell and self-described ‘English rose’ Victoria Clay.

The 22 year-old Brown has been named Miss Transgender, Birmingham, and is a campaigner for trans rights.

“So happy to announce that you'll be seeing a lot more of me!” she wrote in a post on Instagram confirming her place in the show.

“I never thought a girl like me would find a place on a show like this and compete against such beautiful girls. But I guess all you have to do is believe!

“Life isn't about finding a label that fits you best. Life is about finding you! And it's that journey that is incredible. Appreciate the bad just as much as the good!

“I'm faaaaarrrrrr from perfect. And I'm still on that journey of self discovery. I don't know where this journey/path will take me, but for now let's just enjoy the ride!”

The new series is set to begin on March 16, airing on Lifetime in the UK. This year’s panel consists of Abbey Clancy, supermodel Paul Sculfor, fashion guru Hilary Alexander, and photographer Nicky Johnston.
