'What happened to growing old gracefully?' - fans stunned by Louise Redknapp's saucy snap

Fans of Louise Redknapp were stunned by her latest saucy snap as she promotes her new single.

The 44-year-old posted the picture on her Instagram account showing her in just a nude coloured polo neck and cream jacket.

Showing off her lean pins draped over the arm of a soft-pink velvet chair, she paired the outfit with three-inch stilettos.

Alongside the post, the former Eternal singer thanked her fans, she said: "Thanks for all the love for ‘Lead Me On’ guys. I can’t wait to share the new album with you! x"

Thousands have liked the photograph, with many gushing comments, one said: "What happened to growing old gracefully, you're a beautiful lady!"

Another said: "Quality new tune Lou but how come your still beautiful after all these years?"

A third said: "A great British beauty."

And a fourth added: "Wow, Ill buy it just for the cover pic."

The mum-of-two divorced husband, Jamie Redknapp , in December 2017, their relationship had reportedly been on the rocks since her time on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing in 2016.

Louise admitted she felt like a "Stepford wife" during her 19-year marriage to former Liverpool star Jamie.

She has also said that it was Strictly that 'put the fire back in her belly', but was not the cause of her marriage breakdown.

When the pair married in 1998, Louise gave up her music career to focus on her family, in a recent interview with The Guardian , she said: "It took me so long to get pregnant the first time – four years – so I was just so in love with my little boy.

"And, for the first seven or eight years, it was quite nice to not have to worry about where your record’s going, or if people like you.

"But as time went on, I’d drop the kids off at school, go home, walk the dogs and then go home and think: ‘I have five hours until school pick-up.’ That’s a long day.

"It was fine when they were young, because I’d pick them up at 12. Then it changed; they’re at school and doing sport, Jamie was doing his thing, and there was pure panic.

"I was lonely and I felt like I had nothing to say."

Since Strictly, Louise has appeared in a number of musicals, including 9 to 5 The Musical, and has relaunched her solo career with first single 'Stretch' followed by 'Lead Me On' and up-coming album 'Heavy Love'.
