Rose Boyt is the author of Naked Portrait, a searing new memoir covering her relationship with her father, the renowned artist Lucien Freud. The book explores her experience of modelling for him from childhood until after her marriage, the power imbalance in their relationship, her adulation of him and how - years later - she worked it all out. It is a viscerally honest account of a very complicated father-daughter relationship.
