Fern Britton loses 4st

Fern Britton - the incredible shrinking woman

ITV This Morning presenter loses 4st in 1 year

Friday, 30 November 2007

Fern Britton appears to have shed 4st in 12 months, turning up at the National TV Awards looking slimmer than ever.

The well-loved ITV presenter - who has always insisted her weight does not bother her - posed on the red carpet at the Royal Albert Hall last month wearing a halter-neck black gown.

The sexy dress showed off her dramatically smaller waist, slimmed-down hips and more chiselled face.

Hubby chef Phil Vickery, 46, reckons it's all down to her love for bike riding after completing a 250-mile charity ride last year.

'Fern's lost a lot of weight by cycling, walking the dog and not eating too much,' he reveals.

Though the 50-year-old has always described herself as a 'voluptuous size 16', she appears to have dropped from a size 22 to a 14.

Before her amazing transformation, Fern said: 'You can tell there are people watching me and thinking, "Oh the poor woman must go home and sob her heart out over her size." But it's just not true.'

I can see why folk got upset about Fern because she made us girls feel its ok to be large and sexy. Having said that she looks fab and she is such a smashing person/presenter. I just wish I could afford to band. I lost 5 stone in 2006 unfortunately I have put it back on. I have got an under active thyroid which does not help. At least when I am dead and gone, I can have on my grave `thank god for that, no more diets'. Anyway Fern, lucky you, wish it were me. xx
