Ruth returned to the ITV programme in July after taking an extended break following the news that she and Eamonn were going their separate ways.

During Loose Women on Monday, she candidly opened up about her experiences with ageing, admitting that ‘everything has drooped and sagged’ – only to be met with a brutal response from the studio audience.

The TV presenter lifted the lid on the changes she’s noticed in her body since she hit 60 as the panel discussed ‘dramatic ageing’.

It was prompted by a new study which found that rather than experiencing a slow, gradual decline, our bodies change dramatically around the ages of 44 and 60.

Kicking off the discussion, Ruth said: ‘Actually I saw this article, it was in the Daily Mail today with various women talking about it and it really resonated with me.

‘Definitely when I hit 60 it seems to have happened very quickly. So, you know, kind of 50 to 60, you know me I don’t really worry too much about age.’

She added: ‘But 60, until now, I’m 64, I feel that everything has kind of drooped and sagged and it’s a bit you know, funny neck…’

As the presenter trailed off in thought, the audience burst into fits of laughter, to which Ruth responded: ‘I do, I do!’

She glanced over at the studio audience and swiped: ‘You’re supposed to go, no Ruth, no, surely not,’ which sparked another wave of giggles.

Panelist Kelly Holmes jumped in and asked Ruth: ‘Do you actually see it and feel it in yourself?’

‘I can see it,’ Ruth admitted, ‘I look in the mirror or you know if you take a selfie or something, whereas before I didn’t really notice it.’

She continued: ‘We promote very much on here body positivity and confidence, age is just a number, so I do teeter on this kind of tightrope of trying very hard to be that woman.

‘Then I have those moments where I fall off the tightrope to go, ‘Oh my God, look at my neck, it’s awful.’

On the other hand, when Brenda Edwards was asked about if she is bothered by ageing, she confidently responded: ‘Absolutely not, not bothered at all.

‘Everybody says old – you can be three years OLD, and five years OLD, and fifty years OLD, so that is a mindset. I’m kind of done with people saying because you get to 40 or 60 you’re old.

‘No. I’m young at heart and I smile a lot – that’s why I have no wrinkles on my face at 55 years old.’
