As the entire nation battled to keep cool on one of the hottest days of the year, Suzy Eddie Izzard got the memo with her wardrobe choice as she headed out for a stroll.
The stand-up comedian, 63, – who likes to go by the name Suzy but doesn’t mind being called by her birth name Eddie – opted for a bright pink mini skirt as she enjoyed a walk in Soho on Monday.
Teaming her skirt with a white blouse, she finished her look with white trainers and a black leather cross-body bag.
The star previously revealed her plans to prefix her birth name with ‘Suzy’ while expressing a desire to retain ‘Eddie’ for public appearances.
It comes after Suzy revealed she would be ‘very happy to have children’ and confessed she’s open to falling in love again with a woman.
She previously said that she has always fancied women over men and her last known relationship was with singer Sarah Townsend.

Eddie spoke to Gyles Brandreth on the Rosebud podcast and said: ‘I would be very happy to have children. But at the moment it’s not there. Never say never.’
She added: ‘I am trans, but I fancy women, I’ve always fancied women, never fancied boys or men, it just doesn’t work for me.’
While discussing her love life and hopes for the future, Eddie admitted that she is not actively looking for love right now because she is ‘happy’ in her own company.
She revealed: ‘I’m not going to go into lots of relationships. It is tricky – having relationships if you’re a trans person that’s going to be tricky, but I’m quite happy with my own company.’
‘I’m very happy in the position that I am at the moment so I’m not looking. If someone comes along and we click very well – then absolutely.’
She continued: ‘But I’m not actively going to discos.
‘I do believe at some point the right person could be there and we could click.’
She also discussed the type of partner she wants in life, by saying: ‘It would need to be an intelligent person, great conversation, good sense of humour, attractive.’

It comes after the comedian candidly discussed the complexities of dating as a transgender woman.
She told The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden: ‘I would like to start dating, but it’s complicated with me being a trans woman.’
She added: ‘It’s going to have to be a very confident and strong-minded woman who has a relationship with me.’
Suzy was previously in a long-term relationship with singer, director, and producer Sarah.
The pair met at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 1989 through a mutual friend and Sarah also directed the 2009 documentary Believe: The Eddie Izzard Story.
At one point, she was rumoured to be Suzy’s wife from 1999 until they separated in 2002.
The pair reportedly remained good friends even after their separation.
According to previous reports, the entertainer has also dated Susie Church who tragically passed away in 2016.
