The 34-year-old star has been the face of the upmarket brand since 2006 and has appeared in several of their advertising campaigns. However, its chief executive officer, Glenn McMahon, said that they are changing whom they use to front campaigns.

He said: "We wanted to make a clean break from actresses and steer away from blondes and cleanse the palette."

Jolie will be replaced by Karen Elson and she will start off as the face of the brand in its spring campaign. McMahon added: "We needed to show a modern point of view of St John. We have evolved."
