Speaking to Prima, she said: “”I feel no pressure whatsoever about how I look. I’m just into my 60s, but I think the positive is that you care less about what people think of you. You hear people’s opinions, but you don’t take them on board as much as when you’re younger.”

Carol, who will be gracing the front page of Prima’s February 2024, usually receives compliments from fans of the show, and in one incident where she was presenting at Blenheim Palace, fans took to social media and complimented her looks, with one user saying: “You’re looking very trim and fit Carol Kirkwood.”
As 2023 comes to an end and the new year on the horizon, the TV star was asked by the publication what her New Year’s resolution would be, to which she replied: “My resolutions are always the same – the first one is to get fit, and the second one is to lose weight. I fail by the second day of January on both. There’s always so much leftover food. And then I’m going to start again on Monday – but I never do!”

The TV meteorologist also discussed being a best-selling author, saying: “I was asked to write a book either about myself, the weather or fiction. Weather is changing all the time, and there are so many books about it, and I’m too private to write about myself. So I thought, ‘I’ll try fiction, and if it’s rubbish, no one will publish it, so I haven’t lost anything, but I’ll have a nice time writing.’ And I absolutely do. Never in my dreams did I expect my books to be bestsellers. It’s wonderful.”

Opening up on her future on Breakfast, Carol confessed: “It’ll be nice to retire one day and focus on my writing. At the moment, I have two careers running in parallel, and they’re both full-time, so it’s time-consuming. But I also love both of them, and if you want something done, ask a busy person. I can’t imagine I’ll be doing the weather when I’m 90, though!”
The February 2023 issue of Prima is now on sale, and BBC Breakfast is on BBC iPlayer and Weekdays 6 am on BBC One
