Comedian Ricky Gervais has been with his partner Jane Fallon for 40 years. They met when they were students at university

Loose Women viewers couldn’t get over Ricky Gervais’ partner Jane Fallon as she showed off her youthful complexion on Tuesday’s show.

The 61-year-old appeared on the panel show looking gorgeous in a yellow and black patterned shirt and light make-up which highlighted her very smooth visage.

Her hair was also slicked back into a neat bun, showing off her complexion, that prompted some fans of the show to say Jane looked “ageless”.

Jane was on the panel to discuss her new novel and revealed why online dating was the topic she chose for it.

“I was always fascinated by it because it’s like a different universe to me. I can’t really imagine it. I’ve never done it, obviously,” she said.

“And lots of my friends were doing it and I was just fascinated.”

Fans were too distracted by her beauty to focus on the show and took to Twitter to compliment her.

“Check out this gorgeous lady on @loosewomen @JaneFallon #LooseWomen,” one user commented.

Another said: “Jane Fallon looks good for 61 ! #LooseWomen.”

“Lovely interview with @JaneFallon – came across really well! #LooseWomen,” India Willoughby posted.

Ricky and Jane, who are the same age, met while they were both students at the University College London back in the eighties.

Earlier this year, Ricky admitted he wants to die before Jane.

He was on The One Show discussing his series, After Life, when the topic turned to his wife.

Alex said to him: “So you say that you were inspired to write it [After Life] thinking of your wife Jane and what it would be like losing her.

“So does that mean you’ve learned to appreciate her a bit more?”

Ricky responded to say he always did appreciate her and said that was actually where the idea came from.

He said: “The first thought I had was what if you lost everything. You could do what you want and it would have no consequences.”

The comedian continued: “I had to think, ‘well what is losing everything?’ and to me it’s your soul mate, your life partner. So that’s where it came from.”

Ricky admitted he’d be terrible if he lost his partner and confessed: “I want to go first, which is selfish but I do.”

The couple have been together for decades but won’t be getting married.

Ricky previously told The Times: “We are married for all intents and purposes, everything’s shared and actually our fake marriage has lasted longer than a real one.

“But there’s no point in us having an actual ceremony before the eyes of God because there is no God.”
