Trinny Woodall, 61, shows off her incredibly youthful body in bikini snap from Spanish family getaway
Trinny Woodall showed off her ageless physique by sharing a bikini snap on Sunday alongside two of her family members.
The businesswoman, 61, looked radiant as she struck a pin-up style pose in her strapless blue bikini.
Showcasing her tan, Trinny paired the bikini with a summer straw hat and round sunglasses with a clear frame.
She captioned the picture 'ladies in blue' alongside family members Ingrid and Victoria Jacobson
The star explained in a further Instagram post that she spent the weekend in Spain celebrating her half-sister Anne's 70th birthday.
She wrote: 'It has been a profound weekend of getting to know family from around the world - after many years of infrequent get-togethers.'
Trinny then shared some words about what family now means to her.
She added: 'Family is never uncomplicated - what I really learned this weekend is the importance of connection, of cherishing memories, letting go of the past and living in the moment.'
Following the Spanish trip, Trinny returned to London on Monday to attend the launch of Chelsea In Bloom, donning a stunning yellow sequin dress for the occasion.
The bikini snap comes after Trinny opened up about her struggle with her weight, admitting that the pounds fall off her too easily.
Also taking to Instagram, she shared that she now focuses on getting enough protein in her diet after losing 4kg from an illness.
She said: 'I'm not one to talk about weight because for me it's about strength and definitely the maintenance of protein as you go down the path of life.
'But today I am I have always had a high metabolism and I have always been what some people might define as thin.
'What I don't love is when I lose weight especially after being ill and I can lose it quickly - what I notice is the change in my body.'
Trinny added: 'Muscle needs daily protein and muscle keeps my bones protected - it gives structure to my skin and it gives me physical and mental strength.
'It is harder as you get older to maintain muscle mass, but it is so important.'
So in a bid to keep her body looking its best, she has recently doubled her protein intake.
Trinny joked: 'I don't want to be in a bikini with a saggy a**e. I'm just going admit that one.
'But most importantly when i get sick and lose weight it makes me feel so so vulnerable to not being strong in myself and how when I am physically strong it gives me such a mental strength.
'Ask yourself are you taking enough protein every day? You should really take double the kilos that you weigh especially as you reach menopause and beyond... Sometimes that's really challenging.'

Saunas, cuddly toys and new bonds - inside the Lions' Algarve den
"Tell them what you said about me," Ellis Genge teases Finley Bealham as the Englishman sits down for an interview at the British and Irish Lions training base in Portugal."I said you were the best looking, with the best chat," Bealham fires back, before the two props days into the Lions camp and already the bonds are being forged."It was a bit strange when we first turned up, I've said some really horrible things to a few of them on the pitch," Genge tells the Rugby Union Weekly podcast."But what a group of boys. I am really enjoying being around them. Finlay, he's a tighthead [Genge's opposite number]. But we are getting on like a house on fire. What a great bloke - a very funny character, right up my street. That's the beauty of rugby."It's weird, the battle of attrition you have been through over the last few years, playing against them, and trying to hit lumps out of them."Then you come here and get on really well with them." It's a busy scene at the Lions training complex in Quinta do Lago as the players mingle after a gym flanker Henry Pollock is tightly clutching BiL, the Lions mascot which is his sole responsibility as the youngest member of the touring Jones is going through an individual routine with one of the Lions conditioners as the Scotland centre recovers from a niggling Achilles Bundee Aki shares a joke with English pair Elliot Daly and Jamie George, the trio reunited after they toured South Africa together in 2021. Marcus Smith wanders over for a chat, mainly about how mutual acquaintance Danny Care is adjusting to life as a with the players finished in the open-air gym, coach Johnny Sexton and head of performance David Nucifora nip in for a quick Genge speaks to us after a precise sauna session - "11 minutes a day, five days a week," he the relaxed atmosphere, the Lions are on the only do they have to bond off the field, but on it they need to build cohesion before the clash with the world's fifth-ranked side Argentina in Dublin on 20 this is without 15 players from Leinster, Bath and Leicester, who are preparing for domestic finals this weekend. In fact, five weeks after naming his squad, head coach Andy Farrell has yet to have his whole touring party in the same room."Nothing is going to be perfect on a Lions tour," explains assistant coach John Dalziel."The crazy nature of the schedule; the travel; there will be injuries thrown at us. We have just got to be adaptable."This is what we wanted and we have to train that adaptability. That's what the Lions are about - we will move, we will adapt and we will have no excuses."Genge agrees: "We've got a lot to learn. On and off the pitch. But the expectation is to be a fast-learner, and that is what we are doing."The Lions have already had to reshuffle, with Zander Fagerson's calf injury opening the door for Bealham, and George and Asher Opoku-Fordjour joining to bolster training Farrell and the management face a nervous wait before the finalists head into camp on Sunday, with Dalziel confirming some players will be asked to turn around six days later to face the Pumas."The Lions are going to play three games in a week. If we can't turn around in seven days, then we won't be able to turn around in two or three," he adds."Everyone will be available, hopefully safe and sound on Sunday, and ready to go." For a first-time tourist like Wales' Jac Morgan, it's a chance to both make an impression and learn from back-row rivals."There is loads to learn, and I am looking forward to see how they all train, their habits and the extra stuff they do," Morgan tells Rugby Union Weekly."But also it's exciting to work as a back row and get the best out of each other. It will be great to learn from them and to play with them."And as one of only two Welshmen on the tour, Morgan knows he has a responsibility to uphold Wales' proud Lions traditions."There have been a lot of Welshmen in the history of the Lions; they are legends of the game," he adds."So it is a massive inspiration and hopefully we can make everyone in Wales proud."From Portugal, the Lions head to Dublin on Sunday before flying straight to Australia after the meeting with the stop down under is Perth, and the tour opener with the Western Force on June all getting very real, very quickly.

'Brave and beautiful people' remembered in Aids quilt display
Frankie O'Reilly was nine-years-old when he met his future partner Georgie Long at primary school in Northern pair moved to London at the start of the 1980s, where Frankie worked as a traffic warden by day and a drag queen by night. By that time the two had long been inseparable - first as childhood best friends, and then as 1985, both aged 25, Frankie and Georgie were diagnosed with HIV."I started seeing friends slowly dying," Frankie says. "It was like being at a bus stop with your friends and they start getting on buses, and then you're the last person at the stop." In 1992, Georgie died of an Aids-related Georgie and hundreds like him are being remembered as part of the UK Aids Memorial Quilt, a patchwork creation of 42 quilts and 23 textile panels representing nearly 400 people who lost their lives to HIV/Aids in the UK, made by the people who loved huge quilt will be on display in the Tate Modern's Turbine Hall in London between 12 and 16 June. Although different parts of it have been on display before, the showing at the Tate will be the largest public display of the quilt in its entirety since it was created in 1994. It was a month after Georgie died that Frankie decided to take part in the memorial quilt project, which had been brought to the UK from America by Scottish activist Alistair Hulme, who had seen an early display of the American version of the quilt, which was created in 1985, in San Francisco."I had nursed Georgie at home while he was sick and the last three years had been just awful," Frankie says, adding that helping to create the quilt helped him through the worst of his grief. Now 65 and describing himself as the "last man standing" of his friendship group, he says the quilt is a "reminder of the bravest and most beautiful people" he knew. Cathy John and Grace McElwee also took part in creating the UK Aids memorial quilt in the 1990s by making a panel for friend Michael Trask, who died in 1993."We were both librarians and got on like a house on fire as soon as we met in 1985," Cathy became ill five years later, but "didn't want to talk about it" at first. For a while Cathy says they "didn't know what was wrong with him", before eventually coming to terms with the fact that he had Aids. She chose to take part in the project after Michael died as a way to "create an enduring tribute to him".It took Cathy and Grace around a month to complete the textile, which Cathy says was "part of the healing process". The women chose to stitch on to their panel the houses of Camden, where Michael lived, and the tree of life, to represent the parks in London he was fond of. The quilt was last on show in Hyde Park in 1994, when Cathy worked as a volunteer on the display. The project has always been more than a display of activism for Cathy - she says the quilt has "got the stitches of love in it". She says she is excited to see the quilt on display at the Tate Modern as an "outpouring of love and friendship and dedication". Author Charlie Porter initiated the exhibition after writing to the Tate's director in July 2024 asking them to display the quilt. "The history of the quilt involves it being displayed in iconic locations," Porter tells the BBC, referencing how the US quilt was displayed for the first time on the National Mall in Washington DC, during the national march for lesbian and gay hopes the UK quilt being on display again will allow more people to see it, but also "give people a chance to grieve", after many were unable to do so properly at the time of their loved ones' deaths in the 80s and 90s due to the stigma attached to HIV. The 384 people commemorated on the quilt include notable figures such as novelist Bruce Chatwin and actors Denham Elliot and Ian Charleston. Alongside the quilt, a documentary will be played that captures footage from when the quilt was last displayed in 1994 in Hyde Park. "A documentary was made at the time but no one would take it," Porter says."We thought the footage was lost, but it has been found and digitised." In the mid-90s there was no treatment for people living with HIV, and Porter says the documentary along with the quilt highlights "the breadth of devastation" caused by the disease. Karin Hindsbo, Tate Modern director, says the quilt is "an incredible feat of creative human expression" and believes it will be a "deeply moving experience" for those who come to see it.
