Denise Welch told her Loose Women co-star Kaye Adams she gets criticised for posting photos of herself in her swimsuit as she stuck up for women in their sixties
Loose Women’s Denise Welch has hit back after getting ‘flack’ over her unedited swimsuit snaps.
The Coronation Street star, 64, often shares photos of herself looking gorgeous on holiday – but says she gets slammed online for doing so.
Speaking to Kaye Adams on her How to be 60 podcast, Denise said: “I get so much flack still posing in swimsuits at 64, but I don’t care because, you know, if one person says, ‘I was feeling really low on myself and I saw you in a swimsuit and you’re in your sixties..’
“And you know, I don’t filter them – partly because I don’t know how to.
“I don’t want anybody to put us in a box and say, ‘You can’t wear a bikini at 64, you can’t do this at 64.’”
Denise also stuck up for Countdown star Carol Vorderman, who regularly regales fans with sultry selfies, aged 62.
The actress continued: “You’ve got Carol Vorderman breaking the mould and saying that she’s not bothered about finding love.

“She’s very happy, she’s not turning anybody, she has several people that she sees… Good for her!
“The only people that are going to criticise that are people that are stuck with boring old [partners] they have been married to for years.”
Denise is not one to hold back on social media and often gives it back to fans – both barrels.

Recently, she was criticised by a viewer for hogging the spotlight during the discussions on Loose Women.
The mum-of-one hit back after being branded “bitter” as they accused the panellist of trying to “take the stage” during the discussions.
Denise took to Twitter to react to the furious fan, who said she couldn’t bare to watch the mum-of-one on the programme.
They said: “You are a very bitter, angry women Denise, anyone watching Loose Women today will have seen this, you always butt in, try and take the stage with your opinions, why you are still on here I really don’t know.

“When you are on the programme we record and skip passed every time you speak.”
However, reposting the tweet, Denise said: “I’m gutted Jo. You seem like my kind of person as well,” along with a string of laughing emojis. (sic)
Fans of the TV star joined in on the debate as they defended the actress’ reply.
One teased: “Such a shame – sounds like it could have been such a beautiful friendship – and now you won’t even get so much as a Christmas card.”
