Countdown queen Carol Vorderman has revealed she’s feeling pretty unhappy with the way she looks at the moment.

Carol, 63, is no stranger to posing in swimwear or showcasing her curves in skin-tight outfits.

And, while her many followers are very complimentary about the way she looks, Carol herself has now admitted that she’s at the “upper end” of the weight she feels comfortable at, and she reckons her famously perky rear has “dropped”.

Carol Vorderman reckons her bum has ‘dropped’

Carol said that ill health has meant that her usually-regular gym visits have had to come to a halt.

Speaking to Saga, Carol revealed that she doesn’t care what people say about her looks, but she’s “not happy” at the moment.

“Oh, I don’t give a toss about what people say about how I look. But I’m not happy with my body now. My bum has dropped. I’m at the upper end of my weight,” she said.

Carol then explained: “I haven’t been to the gym for months because of the book and because I’ve also had a knee issue which has been giving me problems. Basically, the oil around the joints went, so I’ve had two hyaluronic acid injections. The first one didn’t work but the second one did.”

The star also revealed how she maintains her shape.

She told the mag: “I wear a good bra and jeans that hold you up. I generally have one meal a day – late afternoon – and I do three 45-minute sessions in the gym a week, which I love. Lots of squats for the bum.”
