Secret Diary of a Call Girl – the True Identity of Belle du Jour exposed 

The 34-year-old author of the racy best-selling book, The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl has finally been revealed. Dr Brooke Magnati, who works for The Bristol Initiative for Research of Child Health revealed her true identity to The Sunday Times this week as the women behind the pseudonym ‘Belle de Jour.’
