Ruth Langsford has credited her husband Eamonn Holmes for ‘making me feel sexy’ at 60.
The This Morning presenter praised her partner of 23 years, also 60, for ‘boosting’ her self-esteem as she admitted her self-confidence ‘isn’t that high’.
Broadcaster Ruth also shared the secrets behind her youthful figure, which include lifting weights, maintaining a healthy diet and saying no to plastic surgery.

On how her ‘solid’ relationship has a positive impact on her self-perception, the host shared: ‘I definitely feel sexy at 60, but a big part of that is thanks to my husband. He tells me: “You look fantastic, I think you’re really sexy, I fancy you.” He boosts my confidence.’
Ruth confessed accepting her body is still a working progress as she told Woman & Home: ‘I do have a certain degree of confidence myself, but it’s not that high. I still think, “I’m two sizes bigger than I was in my 40s.” I’ve got my wobbly bits I don’t like.’
The TV veteran has opted for the all-natural route when it comes to maintaining her figure, revealing: ‘I don’t have Botox or fillers so I see pictures of myself and go, “Is that me? Whose neck is that?”‘
The blonde said that while she exercises and includes vegetables in her diet, she still likes to ‘enjoy life’ by treating herself to cake and an alcoholic beverage once in a while.

She added to the publication: ‘I aim for 10,000 steps a day, but it’s a constant battle. It’s not about being skinny, it’s about keeping moving.’
Ruth’s sister Julia Johnson sadly took her own life in June last year aged 62, causing the TV star to step back from hosting duties over the summer to attend to her family.
Nine months after her beloved sibling’s suicide, the media personality insisted Julia ‘wouldn’t want us to be sad forever’ as she enthused she was grateful for her ‘extraordinary’ career, which spans over three decades.
Ruth’s interview comes after she vowed to ‘keep the smile on’ after she and Eamonn defended sitting close together on Friday’s episode of This Morning.

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield have adhered to social distancing advice amid the coronavirus pandemic but Eamonn and Ruth insisted they can still sit alongside each other as they live together.
Ruth shared a clip of herself on Sunday morning and said she hoped her followers were all doing alright amid Britain’s ongoing lockdown.
Taking her dog for a walk, she said: ‘Morning! We’re out for our walk. Another beautiful day – look at that sky – but it’s very cold. Very cold today.
‘Anyway, hope you’re doing OK, staying safe, staying in just apart from your exercise. Speak soon.’
