Woman who slept with over 10,000 men says: " I'm ready to settle down'

Former elite escort Gwyneth Montenegro has slept with exactly 10,091 men. She spent 12 years in the sex industry before retiring three years ago. After years of avoiding relationships she now says she is ready for love.

The 36-year-old received an astounding 80 marriage proposals after the last time the Melbourne resident spoke to Daily Mail Australia in July about the launch of her book, 10,000 Men and Counting.

The overwhelming response to the insight into her former seedy lifestyle got Gwyneth thinking that maybe she was ready to meet a good man - something she never felt comfortable doing when being paid $500 to $1000 an hour to have sex with well-known lawyers, politicians and musicians. 

Writing the book was a therapeutic experience that helped Gwyneth to discover her true self and become comfortable with it - as she describes herself as the 'girl next door'.
