Carol Vorderman marks 60th birthday with throwback bikini snap

Carol Vorderman marked her 60th birthday with a throwback snap as she reminisced about her fifties.

Carol turned 60 on Christmas Eve and celebrated the occasion with her followers by posting a photo of her in a bikini.

The former Countdown host wore no make-up in the picture and wore a green khaki bikini top as she cradled a mug on a boat with the sea behind her.

The mum-of-two revealed that the photo had been taken to the international space station by her astronaut friend, so she could "sunbathe in space".

Captioning the photo Carol said : "Happy 37th Birthday to me.

"I've LOVED my 50s. They started with an astronaut friend taking this photo up to the Space Station so I could "sunbathe in space"

"The rest of the years have been equally absurd.

"I'm the luckiest woman on earth, Life has only just begun! Bring it on. #LovedAndLoving #ThankyouYouKnowWhoYouAre"

And her followers and celebrity friends were quick to wish her a happy birthday.

Piers Morgan said: "Happy 37th, Vorders.. you’re ageing like a Chateau Latour, better with every year. "

Melanie Sykes said: "Happy Birthday darling one!"
