Before her sex-change operation however, Rebecca was Ross Tallon - who ran a hair salon in Mullingar's Patrick Street, as well as running his own model agency.

While still hairdressing, the Granard-born Ross styled Mandy Smith's hair for her wedding to Rolling Stone Bill Wyman - and not long afterwards, Ross decided he would follow his heart, and become a woman. He closed up his business, and moved on from Mulingar.
