Fern Britton showcased her impressive five-stone weight loss as she stepped out in Cornwall on Thursday, wearing a stylish denim co-ord. The 67-year-old TV presenter, who has been open about her fluctuating weight over the years, looked confident while grabbing her morning paper and a sandwich.
Fern paired an oversized denim outfit with a casual white T-shirt and trainers, appearing radiant with minimal makeup as she ran errands. The presenter, who lives in Cornwall, has been candid about her health journey, recently sharing the turning point behind her transformation in an interview with Woman\&Home magazine.
Reflecting on her decision to take control of her health, Fern said the moment came after a shoulder replacement surgery 18 months ago. She explained that two and a half years before the surgery, her surgeon told her he would replace her shoulder and planned to see her again in a year. This prompted Fern to change her lifestyle, stop smoking and drinking, reduce sugar intake by about 80 percent, and start exercising with a Couch to 5k program. She also began paying closer attention to her diet, something she hadn’t done before.
Fern is a mother to four children: twin sons Harry and Jack, aged 31, and daughter Grace, 27, from her first marriage to Clive Jones, and daughter Winnie, 23, with her former husband Phil Vickery. The presenter has kept her private life low-profile since splitting from Phil, a TV chef, in 2020 after 20 years of marriage.
Besides her health journey, Fern is focusing on her writing career. She is set to release her 11th novel, *A Cornish Legacy*, on June 5. The book is about Wilderhoo, a fictional 1,000-year-old Cornish house that has fallen into ruin. Fern revealed it took her two years to write the novel, twice as long as her usual pace, as she has been busy with other commitments.
Five years ago, Fern moved permanently to her Cornish holiday home and has been renovating it gradually. Last year, she participated in Celebrity Big Brother and finished in fifth place. Although she once co-hosted *This Morning* for 10 years, Fern has stepped away from television to focus on writing. She said accepting her new identity as an author took time but now she embraces it fully.
