I saw a picture of her, her dh and their new baby and I didn't recognise her at all until I read the headline.
Still gorgeous but like a completely different person.
I hadn't realised before quite how much make up she normally wears Shock

Also where has the celebrity goss topic gone??

Still very pretty though, wish I'd looked like that just after I gave birth Xmas Grin

BrieAndChilli · 18/12/2019 17:30

I know, I think she must wear false eyelashes most of the time too.
Nice though for her to be happy to post pictures au natural and show new mums don’t have to doll themselves up.

VentiSkinnyLatte · 18/12/2019 17:34

I had to google for a picture, she looks really healthy and happy.
Being on tv she’s got to maintain a look,that inc full make up
I I imagine for her it’s quite liberating to not be on tv or made up for show

TinklyLittleLaugh · 18/12/2019 17:40

Awful thing she did with the Corbyn anti apartheid T shirt. I have her filed under “nasty piece of work” now.

Itschristmasimallowedwine · 18/12/2019 17:43

I like that she showed that the bump doesn’t instantly disappear. When I had DD, my 15 year old cousin was shocked that the bump remained for a week or so.

Also, loved the baby’s knitted rainbow suit.

dworky · 18/12/2019 17:49

No she doesn't - looks like a blonde person who usually wears make up, not wearing make up.

dottiedodah · 18/12/2019 17:58

I think she looked great! Really natural and glowing in the lovely new mum way . Just being herself and enjoying her new baby girl .

Amibeingnaive · 18/12/2019 18:13

She doesn't look that different to me - she's gorgeous anyway.

I went on Countdown a couple of years ago and got into the lift at the same time as her. She was in sweatpants, sunglasses and didn't have a scrap of Make up on but was still glowing!

She's also a lovely person, which was annoying as I quite wanted to hate someone so clever and beautiful 😄

Amibeingnaive · 18/12/2019 18:14

She also wears slippers between takes 😁

Cookit · 18/12/2019 18:15

I really like Rachel Riley.

They look very happy!

ALongHardWinter · 18/12/2019 18:21

Blimey! I didn't recognise her! She still looks lovely though.

Shortbreadbaby · 18/12/2019 18:21

Pasha is gorgeous. She really has it all. Lucky girl

EleanorLavish · 18/12/2019 18:25

My mum hooted with laughter that I “looked like I was about to have another one” 36 hours after my third! So I was particularly pleased to see her bump still very evident. It doesn’t just disappear overnight for most people.
They all looked great.

flashbac · 18/12/2019 18:26

Don't be deceived that's she is nice. She isn't. See what she did with the Photoshopped t shirt and the behaviour on twitter. Strange

marvellousnightforamooncup · 18/12/2019 18:30

Me too Tinkley.

WhiskersPete · 18/12/2019 18:34

Agree. Nasty piece of work she is.

Patroclus · 18/12/2019 18:36

I got into loads of shit when I was younger for stealing plants from outside countdown. So I hate them all still purely for that.

Greyhound22 · 18/12/2019 18:46

I've heard from a reliable source that she isn't very pleasant at all.

AmurderIsAnnounced · 18/12/2019 18:49

Yep, nasty person.

Crunchymum · 18/12/2019 18:58

God aren't we a bunch of bitches?

I take it everyone that has decided she is a nasty piece of work, knows her personally?

As for discussing how she looks????? Fuck me that is unnecessarily rude and judgemental.

BigFatLiar · 18/12/2019 19:10

Don't know her other than as her Countdown persona. Do remember however she was married before she did Celebrity Dancing and let her husband for Pasha. In MN terms once a cheater...

mrwalkensir · 18/12/2019 19:54

um, she's faced hideous stuff from the anti-Semitic wing of the labour party, or had you not seen that?

MrsGrindah · 18/12/2019 19:59

That is one beautiful baby !

tinatsarina · 18/12/2019 20:56

She looks great and she doesn't like Corbyn because of the anti-Semitism and was calling the Labour party out on it.

Delatron · 18/12/2019 21:31

She just has fair lashes. So hasn’t got any mascara on. I don’t wear loads of make up but always mascara as lashes are so fair.

She looks fab I think.
