Cat Deeley has shared holiday photos with her two sons following her split from Patrick Kielty, including images of the This Morning presenter relaxing in a strapless black bikini.
Deeley, who turned 50 last week, travelled away during half-term with Milo, ten, and James, eight. She also posted a photograph of herself wearing a burnt-orange dress and light-brown Hermès sandals.
The presenter appeared to enjoy some time to herself during the sunny break, treating herself to a massage and sharing a fresh-faced selfie.
Alongside the photographs, Deeley wrote: “Happy and healthy family and friends… Kind and funny boys …. The view from ‘The Fifth Floor ‘ is fabulous ☀️”
The former SMTV Live host has previously spoken about her approach to ageing, describing it as a “privilege” rather than something to fear.
“The fact that you’re here and enjoying life – gaining experiences while being happy and healthy. Wow. That, to me, is amazing,” she told Grazia. “We all get older, if we’re lucky – I’m backing my health with science.”
Deeley said her routine includes yoga, walking, tennis and a Mediterranean diet, rather than intensive gym workouts. While living in Los Angeles, she went on a daily 20-minute hike, saying: “It makes all the difference.”
Since returning to the UK, she has found it harder to walk every day because of the weather and her early starts on This Morning. Instead, she has continued to use yoga to support her joint mobility and help quieten her thoughts.
“I’ve been doing yoga for 20 years and I truly love it,” she said. “It switches off my brain and helps me breathe.”
She added that even after two decades of practising, she was “no more bendy than the average person”, but said she never regretted taking 45 minutes for herself.
“Yoga really works for me because you have to concentrate on your breathing and your movement at the same time, so it stops my brain from going a million miles an hour,” she said.
Speaking previously to Harper’s Bazaar, Deeley advised people struggling to establish an exercise routine to find something that suited them and make use of “little pockets of time”.
“We’re pushed these different regimes that are incredibly complicated, incredibly time-consuming, and incredibly expensive, but fundamentally we’re set up to fail – because you can’t do it all,” she said.
