English term or phrase: Mr Gravity has been kind to
As you can see ***Mr Gravity has been kind to*** our SecGen; Halliwell is as much a knock-out as when she shimmied across the stages of the world all of forty years ago. But the question is – is she still all the original Halliwell, or has she accepted a little help? ...

Explanation:
Como son nombres inventados con referencia a ciertos atributos, yo traduciría el señor Gravedad ha sido amable con la secretaria general (como para dejarle sus características corporales en su lugar, no obstante el paso de los años).
