JUDY Finnigan looked amazing as she was seen enjoying time with the family in daughter Chloe’s Father’s Day tribute to Richard Madeley.
The This Morning legend recently showed off a slimmed down figure – but later revealed her weight loss came after she “nearly died” from a ruptured stomach ulcer.
But Judy, 77, proved she is on the mend as she beamed in 37-year-old Chloe’s latest snap, which showed the family tucking into pizza.
Fans were thrilled to see the former broadcaster looking so healthy after her recent ordeal, with one commenting: “Judy is looking amazing.”
Someone else wrote: “Your mum is looking really well.” And a third added: “Beautiful Judy looks fab.”
Earlier this year Judy showed off a svelte new look during a day out with Richard, 69.
But she later revealed the terrifying reason behind her new look – and the health scare that proved life-changing.
In 2018, Judy needed two life-saving blood transfusions after taking ibuprofen for her knee pain sparked a stomach ulcer.
Opening up on the horror incident, which could have seen her “bleed out within an hour” she told MailOnline: “I nearly died.
“Totally out of the blue, I have never experienced anything like it before and hope to god I never will again.
“I survived thanks to exceptionally swift arriving and skilled ambulance crew and superb emergency treatment at London‘s Royal Free Hospital and two major life-saving blood transfusions.”
Since the terrifying experience, Judy has lost over five stone and fitness enthusiast Chloe has praised her mum for sticking to her health kick.
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.”
