Dawn French caused a bit of a frenzy on Twitter yesterday as fans reacted to a picture of the comedy legend looking incredibly trim.
The writer and actress was modelling a top from Sixteen47, the clothing range she created with Helen Teague, but it was her slimmed down body that received the most love from her followers.
The 59-year-old has lost around seven and a half stones since 2014 when she decided to overhaul her diet in preparation for a hysterectomy operation.
Dawn commented on her amazing weight loss while on tour in 2016. She explained: 'When I was due to have my hysterectomy the doc told me that if I could lose some weight before the op, they would be able to do it via keyhole, and I would recover in three weeks or so.
'Otherwise it would be big open surgery, and three months to recover. So, I set about dropping a few stone.'
She also told fans how she achieved it and the sacrifice it took to lose the weight. She said: 'No magic wand, just tiny, joyless low-cal eating and lots more walking for weeks and weeks.
'It was grim. I lost seven-and-a-half stone. I could have the keyhole surgery. Great. That’s all it was, practical.'
Well the effort has certainly paid off and Dawn's followers on Twitter showed their appreciation for her hot new bod.
One wrote: 'OMG! I love it! You look AWESOME!'
While others said: 'Wow Dawn u look gorgeous, u always do. X' and 'You look fantastic!'
