Something wonderful has happened to TV favourites Ruth Langsford and Judy Finnigan. We investigate the secret behind their amazing new looks…
Ruth’s had a serious glow-up
Ruth Langsford has had her fair share of questionable haircuts over the years (we’ve all been there, Ruth). But today the presenter looks better than she ever has! The 62-year-old went through a serious glow-up last year, ditching her sharp bob for a more on-trend wavy hairstyle, and swapping heavy powders for a dewier, more modern look.
While she loves having a natural summer tan, Ruth says she’s a big fan of gradual tan during the winter months to give herself a healthy glow. She also slathers on both face and body cream every night to keep her skin hydrated and swears by cheap and cheerful classic Astral cream, carrying a pot in her handbag.
After becoming frustrated with her post-menopause weight gain, the mum-of-one embarked on a big health kick at the beginning of last summer, taking up the Couch to 5k challenge. Ruth slowly worked her way up from struggling to run for one minute to sprinting for 30 minutes, eventually reaching her goal in August. She’s kept up the running ever since and also works out on a treadmill in her garage, skips, weight trains and ensures she clocks up at least 10,000 steps every day on her Fitbit.
The Loose Women star now makes salads packed with plenty of healthy protein like eggs, ham, salmon and cheese to take to work with her, so she can resist the lure of canteens and catering trucks. In between meals she fills up on fruit, avocados and healthy juices, and cooks from scratch for herself and husband of 22 years, Eamonn Holmes.
Meanwhile Sundays are reserved for home-cooked roasts, and she admits she still enjoys a few G&Ts with the girls. Now that’s what we call balance!
Judy can’t stop smiling
When Judy Finnigan was recently pictured alongside daughter Chloe – her hair longer, her complexion glowing – fans were stunned by how well she looked. She’s due to become a grandmother for the second time later this year, and it seems the 73-year-old has a youthful new look to go with the exciting news.
