FASHION designer Jeff Banks has split from a girlfriend 42 years his junior — and she has moved out of his manor house into a caravan.

Mum-of-two Hannah Beech, 39, is said to be living in temporary accommodation “to rebuild her life” after the romance ended suddenly.

Divorcee Hannah met the celebrity clothes designer in 2022 when he was inspecting his Jeff & Co line at a Home Bargains store in Liverpool, where her 65-year-old father lives.

Twice married Banks, 81, who became a household name presenting the BBC’s Clothes Show from 1986 to 2000, took her number and they started dating.

Over the next two years he splashed tens of thousands of pounds on romantic holidays, taking her to Mauritius, France and the Greek islands.

He also bought Hannah a £5,000 Prada handbag and a £8,000 Yves Saint Laurent jacket on lavish shopping trips.

And in July last year, Banks — who is understood to have four children — invited Hannah to live with him at Crowsley Park House, an eight-bedroom listed mansion in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire.

The house is a short drive from George Clooney’s £12million home by the Thames.

Hannah gave up her holistic beauty business in Runcorn, Cheshire, to live with him.

But the relationship hit the rocks and weeks ago she swapped their luxurious home for a caravan.

A source told The Sun: “Hannah genuinely fell for Jeff, despite the fact he was old enough to be her grandfather.

“He had incredible energy for a man in his 80s and she loved his old-school charm.

“He acted like a gentleman and was very generous.

“But it went downhill and she’s moved into temporary accommodation while she tries to rebuild her life.”

Incredibly, this is not the first time one of Banks’ former partners has ended up living in a caravan after they split.

His first wife Sandie Shaw moved into one with their daughter Gracie when their ten-year marriage ended in 1978.

Last night, Jeff told The Sun his “full and loving” relationship with Hannah ended in June.

He said: “She decided to terminate the relationship herself and left of her own volition.

“Having left, I was not aware of any living arrangements she has made.”
