Carol Vorderman looked fabulous in another flattering outfit on Wednesday – and it was for a reason very close to her heart.

Although Wales isn’t playing, it’s a crucial game for the team because France losing or scoring a draw could propel them to victory.

Carol captioned the photo: "Getting ready for Friday's big game."

The maths whiz hasn't only been watching sport during lockdown, however – she's also been keeping fit herself.

Since the start of the pandemic, Carol has been chronicling her journey to improve her fitness, including upgrading the living room of her Bristol home into a swish home gym.

The star modelled a black Wales shirt on Sunday, which she showed off before setting off on a lengthy walk, another type of exercise she enjoys.

In the stunning selfie, the presenter and author could be seen smiling at the camera, teaming the body-con top with navy leggings.

Carol's a big supporter of her home team

She captioned the image: "Think I'm on for a long walk today."

A few days previously, Carol had proudly displayed her newly developed arm muscles, flexing so they could be seen through her clothing.

"News just in I've found a bicep," she wrote.

The former Countdown star's cardio and weightlifting sessions have clearly left her feeling body confident as a couple of weeks ago, she wore one of her most daring looks to date, donning a fabulous figure-hugging leather catsuit for her appearance on BBC One's Six Nations Sin Bin.
