Carol Vorderman, 60, pulls on a wetsuit as she paddle boards with friends

She’s been enjoying a countryside get away with friends in Wales. 

And Carol Vorderman embraced her active side during a fun activity with friends on Tuesday as she tried her hand at paddle-boarding.

The 60-year-old former Countdown star showed off her curves in a skintight wetsuit in a slew of snaps shared to her Instagram. 

The presenter appeared very much in a jovial mood as she beamed from the water with her mates. 

She captioned the post: ‘Time for larking….holding hands with the law…Kate’s a policewoman….what a team…and JUMMMMMPPPPP.’ 

‘So here we are a policewoman, a firefighter, an adventurer, an Army wonder woman, a traffic warden and a big a**ed bird from the telly ❤️’

The star also shared a ‘monster’ paddle-board with her friends in a fun video shared with her fans.

The TV personality seems to be back on fine form after being forced to take a break from her career when she contracted Covid-19.

Speaking in June, Carol said she was left feeling bloated and ‘beyond tired’ from her hectic schedule last year.

Carol told The Mirror: ‘I’m not that bothered about being on the telly any more. I worked my butt off last year and I don’t want to do it any more.’  

She said having a hectic schedule filming The Maths Factor, various TV shows including Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel, and writing new books made her burn out.

The former I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here campmate added: ‘I found lockdown difficult – like everybody. By last Christmas I was bloated and not well. Tired beyond tired, and I was finding filming not pleasant.

‘In January I said to my agent, “I’m just not doing that any more. I don’t see the point. I’m going to concentrate on my health,” so that’s what I’ve been doing.’
