Melanie Sykes, 49, puts on age-defying display in skintight latex and fishnets

Melanie Sykes has stunned with her incredible figure at the age of 49.

The TV personality, who will celebrate the big 5-0 next month, donned skingtight leather and fishnets as she strutted her stuff in a steamy video.

Getting fans hot under the collar, Melanie rocked a figure-hugging latex number, tassles off the arms, with fishnets wrapped around her enviable pins and high heels to finish the ensemble.

She swayed her hips from side to side as she dropped the announcement that she'd be appearing in The Frank Magazine next month, for which she's Editor-In-Chief.

Melanie told that the shoot will help mark her 50th as she celebrates the milestone.

Fans and pals alike were quick to fawn over her incredible figure in the comments section.

Funnyman and close mate Alan Carr shared a string of heart eyes emojis, while actress Laila Rouass did the same with fire emojis.

"Gorgeous legs mel," one impressed follower wrote, while another branded her "simply beautiful."

A third gushed: "You have the best legs EVER."

A fourth got a bit excited, admitting: "Not helping the crush whatso ever...haha."

Back in May, Melanie marked three years sober having ditched the booze back in 2017.

She's vowed to never let it return to her life after branding alcohol "toxic" and admitting her behaviour had got out of hand.

After managing to kick the bottle, she previously wrote on the AlcoholChange website: "I am more present than I have ever been, I'm shaking off old ideas about myself and I've moved forward bravely without any crutches.

"I've fronted up to my fears and believe me there have been tears, but the highs have felt a damn sight better than any beer buzz, or a three-glasses-of-wine thrill.

"With sobriety comes clarity.

"With the help of my addiction therapist, I went back over my life and listed an inventory of drunken behaviour and behaviour around drink, where it stemmed from, why I have put up with abusive relationships, why I have been overwhelmed with stress and anxiety at times, and why I react to things in the way that I do."

She added that she had been developing ways to break these cycles - and though she still has dark days, they're not brought about through drink and feel "more manageable."

"I'm always in my right mind and I'm properly taking care of myself," she continued.
