Jodie engages audiences through her racing experience, television presenting, and entrepreneurial ventures, delivering authentic insights backed by her Maserati racing credentials and successful media career.
Jodie Kidd is one of Britain’s most recognisable faces in fashion, television, and the automotive world. Known for her early success as a model, Jodie graced the covers of high-profile magazines and walked for iconic designers like Alexander McQueen and Givenchy. Over time, her career evolved beyond the runway, as she expanded her public presence through television and her deep passion for classic cars and motorsport.
Jodie’s automotive interests go well beyond hobby status. A Maserati racing driver, she’s competed on prestigious European circuits and taken on challenges like the legendary Mille Miglia for Jaguar. Her love of cars also finds expression in her YouTube series, Kidd In A Sweet Shop, where she dives into the world of automotive culture, amassing millions of viewers and engaging a dedicated fanbase. She also hosts Chubb Insurance’s podcast, where she explores stories from enthusiasts in the classic car community, further showcasing her expertise and enthusiasm for this field.
In television, Jodie has embraced a range of roles. She has appeared on popular shows including Who Do You Think You Are?, Strictly Come Dancing, and ITV’s Don’t Rock the Boat. As a presenter, her work spans from hosting her own US show, Fashion Avenue, to co-hosting The Classic Car Show on Channel 5 and ITV’s Isle of Man TT coverage. Each role underscores her versatility and adaptability in front of the camera.
Beyond media, Jodie is also a successful entrepreneur. She owns The Half Moon, a countryside pub in West Sussex, where she is closely involved in everything from menu design to monthly Curry and Quiz nights. Her hands-on approach has contributed to the pub’s success, recognised by the AA with two Rosettes for its high-quality dining experience.
Committed to sustainable living, Jodie enjoys growing her own vegetables and has shared her holistic approach to health in her book Balance Your Life, which topped the Amazon bestsellers list. She lives in the countryside with her son Indio, fiancé Joseph, and a variety of animals, embracing a lifestyle that harmonises her passions and values.

The final fee depends on format, location, date and session length. Virtual and shorter sessions usually cost less, and international travel and peak dates cost more. PepTalk confirms the exact fee in your currency once it has your brief.
