JUDY Finnigan looked slim and chic as she was pictured out and about in London with husband Richard Madeley.
The 76-year-old broadcaster and journalist wore shades, a dark jacket over her shoulders and patterned trousers.
Walking beside her, Good Morning Britain‘s Richard, 68, looked smart in a dark jacket, white T-shirt and jeans.
Judy’s figure has changed dramatically in recent years with her losing over five stone.
The change took her super fit daughter Chloe by surprise, and the professional trainer admitted in 2018 that all the hard work was done by her mum without any help from her.
Speaking on Loose Women, she explained how her mum’s diet consisted of raw fish and healthy whole grain salads, though she wasn’t interested in gym workouts.
She said: “I was as surprised as anyone else when I opened the fridge on coming home on the weekend and saw superfood salads and soups, I thought, what the hell is going on!
“I have to say her diet is now amazing. Her palate has changed. She has got into sushi, raw fish and whole grain salad. She has dropped the pounds naturally.”
Earlier this year, we revealed Richard and Judy could be plotting a surprise business move into the underwear sector, 15 years after last working together on screen.
The couple have trademarked their name to flog goods also including smellies, cosmetics and other merchandise.
Their application was published by the Intellectual Property Office.
The pair first trademarked “Richard and Judy” in 2000 — the year Judy accidentally exposed her bra at the National Television Awards.

It appears to have expired in 2020 but they applied again in December.
A TV insider said: “Judy’s bra flash was perhaps one of the outstanding moments of their career and may have inspired the couple to consider underwear as an option — and clearly they still think so.
“But it’s not the only product they’ll be able to put their name on and they could make a mint.”
The couple married in 1986 and co-hosted This Morning and Richard & Judy for decades.
And their influential book club is in its 21st year.
Judy has stepped away from television in recent years, but Richard continues to have a prominent position as co-anchor of Good Morning Britain.
The couple met in 1982 while working on two separate shows for Granada Television. At the time, both were married – Judy to David Henshaw, and Richard to Lynda Hooley.
Recalling their earliest dates, Richard said in an interview: “[Colleagues at Granada] thought it was frivolous, but it wasn’t anything of the kind.
“It was actually very painful because we were very much in love, but it was very difficult.”
While Richard knew he wanted to marry from their third date, Judy wasn’t so sure. She was not convinced he was ready to be a stepfather to her twins, Dan and Tom, who were six at the time.
She explained: “I had to be absolutely convinced that Richard was mature enough and sure enough of his own mind that my boys weren’t going to be hurt.
“When we first got together I remember my mother said to him, ‘If you hurt those boys I’ll never forgive you’.”
So serious were Judy’s concerns, in fact, that she briefly called off the relationship.
But broken-hearted Richard responded with an incredible gesture that quickly won her back, taking a solo break to Greece specifically to study books about step-parenting to prove how serious he was.
