Linda, 60, also hit the headlines recently when she posted an image of her posing in the same bikini she rocked more than 30 years ago.

She said: “Look at Lorraine today. She’s giving me a run for my money. Isn’t that amazing.

“You’ve only got one body, you’re only here once, enjoy it. Stop worrying what other people think all the time.

“There’s one good thing that comes with age - you don’t care as much.”

Linda appeared on the ITV morning programme to speak about how her body confidence has grown as she's gotten older.

She also spoke about how women are their own worst enemies when it comes to how they look.

She said: She said: "All women do when they look at the mirror just look at the faults, they don't look at the good things about themselves. They feel I can't I can't do this cause that looks fat or my bingo wings or whatever.

"As you get older you realise nobody cares. They're so involved with themsleves. They're not worrying if you have a bit of cellulite or not.

"Just go out there and be you. Be the best you you can be."

Lorraine airs weekdays on ITV at 8.30am
