Woman is a bit more needy … (5)
I believe the answer is:
renee
'woman' is the definition.
'is a bit more needy' is the wordplay.
'is a bit' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (the answer is formed by a bit of the clue).
'RENEE' is hidden within 'more needy'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
