This Morning’s Vanessa Feltz reveals three-and-a-half stone weight loss – and says it’s improved her sex life

THIS Morning’s Vanessa Feltz has revealed she’s lost three-and-a-half stone – and it’s improved her sex life with her toyboy fiancé.

The 57-year-old is now down to a size 12 after undergoing surgery for a gastric band after years of struggling with yo-yo dieting.

She’s now celebrating her new look, which has made her feel sexier in lingerie and worry less about her health.

Despite her dramatic transformation, Vanessa won’t stop there and aims to lose another seven pounds by the end of the year.

Talking about the impact her weight loss has had on her relationship with her 47-year-old partner Ben Ofoedu, Vanessa admitted to : “He doesn’t seem to have become any less keen on a bit of how’s your father, put it that way.

“He likes a bigger woman with a big fat bum.

“Mine has almost dwindled away, so I don’t think he’d have cared if I hadn’t lost an ounce, but he likes the confidence.”

She added: “I’ve been able to get sexier underwear. I love a negligee – I’ve got some fabulous satin ones which I think are absolutely irresistible to Ben.

Size-12 Vanessa was able to wear a bikini for the first time on holiday in 35 years this summer – and felt fantastic.

Losing weight has also helped her worry less about having a heart attack or suffering from diabetes.

And she claims it’s helped with her menopause symptoms as she feels “less hot and bothered, less bad tempered and less stressed”.

Vanessa has been engaged to lead singer of Phats & Small since 2006. They were due to wed in 2007 and again in 2011 but have yet to get married.
