ITV Loose Women star Denise Welch stuns in red swimwear as she marks weight loss milestone

ITV Loose Women star Denise Welch celebrated maintaining her two stone weight loss for the past 10 years. The TV star originally wanted to slim down for her wedding to Lincoln Townley in 2013

ITV Loose Women panellist Denise Welch has won widespread support from fans and her celebrity pals alike as she posted an incredible swimwear snap to Instagram.

The presenter and actor, 65, regularly shares updates with her fans on social media, and this time she is celebrating maintaining her two stone weight loss for 10 years. The former Coronation Street lost the weight in two months before her wedding to partner Lincoln Townely in 2013 using meal replacement shakes Lighter Life.

She shared the photo, which shows her leaning on a chair, wearing a coral swimsuit, smiling and posing, with matching sandals and red nails. Poking fun at her pos, she captioned the snap: “The old perching comfortably on the one inch arm of a very hard chair for the gram!!! @lighterlife #10years #ambassador”

Denise’s fans went wild for the holiday photo, with some familiar faces making their way to the comments section to cheer her on.

Friend and fellow TV star Carol Vorderman wrote: “Lols to the perching. Looking hot as hot Dens.” While pal, author Donna Ashworth added: “Now it feels like Christmas!”

Denise’s fan base couldn’t wait to compliment her either. One commented: “Looking fabulous Denise,” and another gushed: “Oooo lala look at this sexy mama whoo hoo!” A third wrote: “Looking gorgeous as usual!”

And while Denise was all smiles in the stunning snap, she was recently less impressed with long-standing foe Piers Morgan, after their ongoing feud kicked up another notch. Never one to be afraid of standing up for what she believes in, Denise commented on Morgan’s scathing review of Omid Scobie’s new book, Endgame. Scobie, who is said to be friends with Meghan Markle, caused uproar with the publication, which made claims about the Royal Family.

In his column in The Sun, Morgan said: “I can’t speak for Charles, Camilla, William, or Kate, but if two close members of my family had spent the past few years trashing the rest of us on global media platforms, the only way I’d want to spend Christmas with them is if they were human chestnuts roasting on my open fire.”

Denise went on to share a screenshot of the review with her followers, highlighting the section where Morgan makes a thinly veiled threat to Harry. She wrote: “Today’s piece by Piers Morgan. Yet again totally justifying Harry’s decision to move away and protect his wife.”

Her fans were equally disgusted, with some tagging the Met Police in the hope they would investigate the comments.
