ITV Loose Women's Carol McGiffin asked 'how' as she shares age alongside husband, 40, in holiday snaps

Loose Women star Carol McGiffin has left fans stunning as she showed off her fabulous figure on holiday. The TV star, who is a panellist on the ITV lunchtime show, had shared various snaps on Instagram from her getaway to Thailand with her husband Mark Cassidy to celebrate her latest birthday.

But fans can't believe her age. In one of the images, Carol could be seen cuddling up to her man on the beach as they toasted her special day with rose wine. She couple be seen sporting a white bikini top with matching shorts which she left open to show off her abs as she basked in the sunshine in Phuket.

She kept her short locks straight before completing her look with a statement necklace and oversized sunglasses. Meanwhile, Mark, 40, kept his look casual teaming a black T-shirt with monochrome shorts as he raised a glass to his wife on her special day. The pair were also seen posing in front of the sunset before enjoying some beers and a game of pool.
