Fern Britton puts on an eye-popping displaying in perilously plunging bikini

Fern Britton set Instagram ablaze when she whipped off her bra in favour of an eye-catching bikini top.

The former This Morning host, who split from husband Phil Vickery in January following 20 years of marriage, put on quite the display when she snapped a close up shot of her plunging cleavage.

Sharing her lockdown secrets to her 76,000 followers on Twitter, the 63-year-old confessed she finds wearing a bra uncomfortable – and to hammer the point home she stripped off in the red-hot snap.

Alongside a picture of herself in a strappy polka-dot bikini, Fern explained: “Gals, I have taken to wearing a bikini top instead of a bra.

“Much more comfortable. You’re welcome x.”

Fern was soon praised for her handy hack, with many sharing their own stories of ditching the bra.

One user wrote: “Been living this life all lockdown.”

“I’ve been wearing bralettes on days when I’m not going anywhere. Not much support but sooo comfy!,” another chipped in.

While a third added: “I wore all in one swimsuit under a dress the other week …so much comfier.”

The snap comes after Fern opened up about her divorce from Phil Vickery, admitting while it was the “right thing to do” it has been a “difficult time”.

“We simply needed to follow our own paths,” she told Woman and Home magazine.

“Life has changed for me in the last ten years, especially with my career. So it’s lovely to think I can just concentrate on writing, the kids and getting on with life,” Britton explained.

“This feels quite comfortable, and Phil and I knew it was the right thing to do.”

She added: “At this moment in my life I’m feeling really confident, strong and quite indestructible. There are times, of course, when I’ve been very low and finding life difficult.”
