Carol Vorderman, 63, the TV icon known for her enviable curves and age-defying looks, has just dropped a bombshell in her latest interview with Saga Magazine, admitting she’s not as happy with her body as fans might think. The former Countdown star, who’s often praised for her stunning figure, revealed that she’s struggling with body confidence after claiming that her ‘bum has dropped.’
Despite maintaining her glamorous appearance over the years, Carol confessed she’s at the upper end of her weight and has been unable to keep up with her usual gym routine. “I haven’t been to the gym for months because of my book and a nagging knee issue,” she shared, revealing that she underwent two injections to treat the joint problem.
However, it’s her bizarre snack choice that has really caught everyone’s attention—Carol swears by raw Brussels sprouts! Yes, you read that right. The star confessed she “generally carries a bag of them” to munch on, a snack that’s as surprising as it is unglamorous.
In a candid moment, Carol also admitted she only eats one meal a day, usually late in the afternoon, and when she does make it to the gym, she focuses on squats to keep her famous behind in shape. Despite being unhappy with her body, she made it clear she doesn’t care what others think about her appearance. “I don’t give a toss about what people say about how I look,” she declared.
Known for her regular detox routines, Carol also revealed that she detoxes twice a year, a controversial habit she’s stuck with since 1999. She’s sworn off weighing herself for over two decades and refuses to let doctors tell her how much she weighs during medical check-ups.
With her unconventional snack choices, firm stance on detoxing, and “I don’t care” attitude towards her appearance, Carol Vorderman continues to shock and inspire in equal measure. Fans can’t get enough of her honesty and, let’s face it, we’re all curious if those Brussels sprouts are the secret to eternal youth!
