That's what happens when you date a personal trainer! Melanie Sykes, 41, shows off her tanned and toned figure in tiny shorts

That's what happens when you date a personal trainer! Melanie Sykes showed off her tanned and toned figure in a strappy vest top and shorts as she stepped out with a friend in London yesterday


She might be 41, but Melanie Sykes is looking better than ever thanks to her relationship with her new toyboy, Craig Eleftheriou.

And it's not only the fact that she is dating a man 13 years younger than herself that is giving the TV presenter a new lease of life, but also the fact that Craig is a personal trainer.

So it's no wonder Melanie decided to show off the results of her new fitness regime, devised by her beau, by donning a strappy vest top and tiny shorts for a day out in London with a female friend.

Summer style: Melanie, 41, looked in great shape - no doubt the result of having dated a personal trainer for the past four months

Melanie, who first made her name in the Boddingtons Bitter adverts in the 1990s, teamed her summer chic outfit with a pair of lace up black sandals, sunglasses and a trendy brown tote bag.

In a recent interview with the Daily Mirror, mother-of-two Melanie admitted she loves her 'ripped' new look.

She said: 'I wasn’t ­that ­insecure about how I looked ­before. But I love how I look now. I like being toned, it’s a good ­feeling. But it’s not about luck.

'I put the work in. You go to the gym and you work b***** hard, so it’s nothing to do with luck. You watch what you eat, anybody can do it. It’s about commitment.'

Feeling hot? At one point, Melanie lifted up the side of her shorts in a bid to cool down in the London heat

And Melanie added it's her relationship with Craig which has given her a whole new interest in working out and staying fit.

She said: 'I’ve never really been this ­bothered before. I did a bit of yoga and running, but nothing much, I sort of dabbled. It’s only been in the last three or four months that I’ve really got into it.

'I’ve always been slim but my body changed with the children. My job’s ­always demanded that I’m slim and I’ve got a high ­metabolism. I just feel ­more ripped.'

She added: 'I really like my arms. Sometimes they look a little bit Popeye-like, but they're very toned and I'm proud of them.

'I look the way I do at the moment because I work hard at it and I'm honest about that. I don't roll out of bed looking amazing.'

As well as working as a successful model, Melanie also shot to fame presenting The Big Breakfast.

And she has recently returned to the small screen presenting Let's Do Lunch With Gino and Mel, alongside flamboyant TV chef Gino D'Acampo.

But despite hosting a cookery programme, Melanie admits she still has to watch what she eats - sticking to a low carb diet with very little red meat.

She explained: 'I want to look the best I possibly can. And when you're with someone who is into fitness because of his job and whose body is unbelievable, you've got to match that.

'I don't want to not measure up to him!'
