Reveal English model receiving kiss (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

expose

'reveal' is the definition.
(I know that expose is a type of reveal)

'english model receiving kiss' is the wordplay.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'model' becomes 'pose' (model can mean to pose).
'receiving' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'kiss' becomes 'x' (X can represent a kiss).
'e'+'pose'='epose'
'epose' going around 'x' is 'EXPOSE'.

(Other definitions for expose that I've seen before include "display" , "Abandon" , "Make visible or obvious" , "outing" , "hazard" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
