BBG News

Kirsty Gallacher has spoken up against those who have flattered her by stating she appears “wonderful for 49”.

The speaker, who’s dating a man named Darren Clayton who’s 10 years younger than her, feels that age isn’t as significant in today’s world, asserting that she remains youthful as long as she perceives herself to be.

She shared with Top Sante magazine, “It frustrates and saddens me when people comment that I look ‘wonderful for 49.’

Is it expected of me to appear older than my years? It’s always puzzled me. I understand they don’t intend offense, but aging is a fact.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but share this insight: The luminary confided that growing older has been a blessing, allowing her to truly grasp who she is at her core.

Kirsty said her 30s passed her by in a flash because she was a busy working mum.

As the years slipped away, she found herself moving faster when she experienced a divorce in her mid-thirties, which put her mental state in a difficult place for a while afterward.

Instead, she’s currently thriving, and suggested that when offering compliments about someone’s looks, one should avoid mentioning their age.

Instead of commenting, “Wow, you look fantastic for being 49,” try asking, “You look terrific! How do you manage to look so good?” This way, your compliment is still sincere and appreciative, but it also shows genuine curiosity about their secret.

I want to share with you that I maintain a healthy diet and take good care of myself. I hope it’s clear, but let me assure you we don’t need to dwell on the topic of age anymore.

The celebrity emphasizes that a balanced diet forms a crucial part of her health regimen, and she consistently chooses nutritious meals to energize her workout sessions.

Throughout her life, she’s occasionally followed a vegetarian diet but as she grew older, she came to appreciate the significance of incorporating animal protein into her meals. Now, she openly acknowledges that she experiences poor health when such protein is absent from her diet.

Kirsty mentioned that, being a compassionate individual who cares deeply for animals, she makes a point to purchase items from ethical sources. She often opts for fish instead of consuming red meat on occasion.

Kirsty’s commitment to living healthily played a part in her encountering ex-rugby player Darren, age 39, whom she eventually fell for during a charity trek from Bisham Abbey to Paris.

When they first encountered each other, Kirsty mentioned that she felt an immediate attraction towards him, captivated by his energy and charm.

It wasn’t until she truly understood him that she recognized just how talented her younger companion was.

She admits that, at first, she worried that their age gap would be a problem. 

She expressed that she overheard him discussing his age, and her thoughts were something like: “Ah, I find him quite attractive, but I’m concerned about the potential age gap.

‘He didn’t know what age I was either. But then it was like “bang” and it didn’t matter.’
