How Lorraine Kelly maintains her age-defying figure at 65 as TV presenter shares jaw-dropping bikini snap – but remains convinced ‘she’s got a belly’

On Thursday, Lorraine Kelly shared a stunning bikini photo of herself, causing many to ponder how she manages such an age-defying figure and physique.

On her morning show, the 65-year-old TV host frequently dons stylish midi dresses, giving them a frequent appearance.

However, during her latest vacation, the star’s astonished fans were left speechless when they saw her remarkable physique as she donned a white two-piece swimsuit.

Outside of her on-screen roles, Lorraine often spends time walking her cherished dog Angus and playing with her granddaughter Billie.

Lorraine enjoys taking Zumba classes led by her instructor, Maxine, and attributes this physical activity to significantly improving both her mental and physical well-being.

The Scottish icon has also shared her passion for wild water swimming on her social media.

I greatly enjoy open-water swimming in natural bodies of water. Unfortunately, I don’t have the chance to do it often, but with the improving weather, I plan to make it a weekly routine, without a doubt.

In Lorraine’s words to the South Wales magazine, she expressed that this activity is beneficial for both your physical health and mental well-being. She further added that it’s a fantastic experience while participating in it, and when you finish, you feel completely rejuvenated. Overall, she described it as truly wonderful.

She also insisted the exercise classes is what has helped her drop three dress sizes back in 2018.

During that period, Lorraine shared details about her workout routine with her followers while debuting a body positivity series titled “Work It Out” on her ITV program.

She confessed: ‘Like so many people, I found excuses not to commit to a regular exercise routine.

After discovering a type of exercise I truly love and attending Maxine’s classes consistently, I notice an improvement in both my physical and mental well-being.

She mentioned: ‘We discussed the menopause and its challenges for everyone last year, causing me some anxiety… However, it has been beneficial. It’s as if I’ve decluttered my mind. It feels like a reset, honestly, it does.’

Discussing her workout sessions with Maxine, Lorraine mentioned, “The class is fantastic. It has a strong sense of camaraderie, as if we’re all sharing this experience. Maxine acts like a supportive guide at the end.

‘Working out has helped me drop three dress sizes and changed my life in an important way.’

Instead, Lorraine openly admitted that she paused her exercise routine for a couple of years and temporarily stopped attending her classes for a period of two years.

In the year 2022, she resumed her daily routine and announced via Instagram, “First workout in more than two years! Exhausted but a blast! Looking forward to regaining my health and happiness!

As your trusted lifestyle advisor, I proudly revealed to my dear fans during yesterday’s ITV broadcast that I’m sporting a lovely belly in this week’s bikini shot. It’s all about embracing and celebrating our bodies, isn’t it?

In the studio, Emily Clarkson, daughter of Jeremy Clarkson, engaged in a conversation about the potential risks associated with digitally modifying photos prior to sharing them on social platforms.

Emily, 30, is known for her candid posts on social media about body positivity. 

In the course of our chat, a photo of Lorraine’s pool served as an example to showcase the capabilities of modern technology in editing or enhancing images.

To facilitate comparison for both home viewers and those in the studio, Lorraine’s unaltered image was positioned alongside a modified one, clearly demonstrating changes to her physical appearance.

Other significant adjustments were made to her arms and chest area, which initially caused Lorraine to chuckle upon observation.

She exclaimed, ‘This demonstrates your capabilities. Its effectiveness hinges on its purpose. They managed to pull it off with my help, and I couldn’t help but laugh at it! I was taken aback and thought, wow!’

The Scottish actor emphasized the genuine nature of the photo, stating: “It’s quite common really, I have a belly like many others.

Lorraine then recalled when she stripped off on her show nine years ago for The Bikini Promise.

The program lasted for five weeks and its goal was to make participants comfortable with their bikini bodies, regardless of age, weight, or physique.

Lorraine playfully reminisced, “I slathered myself with fake tan, and now, as you can tell, I’m as orange as a satsuma!

ITV has recently shortened the length of “Lorraine” from an hour to only half an hour, and the long-standing show will now air only during certain seasons.

Previously, TopMob shared that Lorraine was offered by ITV executives the opportunity to combine her daytime program with Good Morning Britain for the final half-hour of their airtime. However, Lorraine chose not to accept this offer.

Last month, she was unexpectedly summoned to a meeting before the publicized budget reduction in our channel. During this gathering, she was presented with a fresh plan, which had been deemed an efficient solution following a similar approach that was implemented during the pandemic.

According to reports, Lorraine took offense to the proposal and made high-ranking officials aware that it wasn’t viable, leading to the shortened length of her program from one hour to half an hour.

For the past 14 years, Lorraine had been hosting her show, and she was considering leaving it behind. However, she decided to stick around and continue hosting the series up until the end of 2026.

Next year, the star is expected to depart permanently following the establishment of a new position, “Head of Lorraine,” tasked with managing changes. However, this role comes with a contract valid for just twelve months.
