Despite his sister being one of the world’s most famous models, Nick Moss has largely managed to stay out of the limelight.
And the younger brother of Kate Moss says he ‘never wanted to piggyback on her fame’, despite admitting she ‘can open doors’.
The 50-year-old, who runs Vietnamese street food truck called Vietvan, has also revealed how he ditched his party lifestyle following a cancer scare four years ago.
In an interview with The Sunday Times’ Style magazine, Nick described how he has wanted to make a name for himself, despite his sister’s enormous fame.

‘I’m aware I get these opportunities, and that Kate can open doors. But if the door opens and I’m a c*** cook, it’s not going to stand up, is it? Fact,’ he said.
‘I never wanted to piggyback on her fame. You see people on the coat-tails of other people’s success and it’s cringy and embarrassing. You want to be your own person.’
He added that Kate, who has previously been pictured paying a visit to his food truck, is ‘proud’ of him.
Nick also described how discovering a lump in 2013 made him realise he wasn’t ‘bulletproof’.
