Louise Redknapp has welcomed in her 50s with a truly ageless string of pictures.
The singer, 50, posed in a slinky black leotard outfit and sheer tights as she clutched her heels for the glorious snaps.
With her blonde hair in a ponytail, the former Eternal star also posed on a bed with her arms cast out jubilantly and legs kicking in the air as a laced black train fell from her bodysuit.
Fans were instantly struck by her youthful appearance in the pictures, as Instagram user christopherleepowerofficial wrote: ‘You never age Louise.’
’50!? You look 30,’ pointed out georgethebottster, as laurenblowermakeup wrote: ‘I hope I look like this at 50 good Lord.’
Louise previously revealed her exercise routine in an interview with Women’s Fitness in 2022, and said while she’s always kept strong, she is no gym addict, but would always be tempted away from her routine by a dinner invitation with friends.

‘Obviously, I have always been into dance and I have been lucky enough to have personal trainers over the years, so I’ll try to do some sort of work out three times a week,’ she said.
She singled out a trainer called Bradley Simmonds, who used to work with her, her ex-husband and former footballer Jamie Redknapp, and their eldest son Charley, as a ‘great’ influence.
Getting into the nitty gritty of her routine, Louise revealed: ‘Most nights you’ll find me on the Peloton bike, watching television like Love Island. Then there is Pilates, which I’m totally obsessed with.
‘I’m so lucky that one of my best friends is a Pilates teacher, so we have great sessions together as I love exercising in a social environment. I love reformer Pilates, too. It’s a great way to exercise, tone and lengthen your body.’
The media personality was married to Jamie for 20 years, but after quitting her music career with Eternal to raise their two sons Charley and Beau, they divorced in 2018.

After competing on Strictly Come Dancing in 2016, Louise went on to step further into the spotlight during and after her divorce, as she starred in West End shows including Cabaret and 9 to 5, and she even released a comeback album after 20 years called Heavy Love.
In September last year, it was reported that Louise had pulled out of an Eternal reunion after two of the R&B group’s members, sisters Easther and Vernie Bennett, refused to play events such as Pride and Mighty Hoopla which celebrate the LGBTQ+ community.
According to Louise’s publicist, Easther, 50, and Vernie, 52, felt that ‘the gay community was being hijacked by the trans community and they do not support this.’

After reports broke, Naked singer Louise shared an Instagram story post which featured a Pride flag and the caption: ‘Always & Forever,’ alongside a red heart emoji.
In her personal life, Louise went Instagram official with her younger boyfriend, 40-year-old aerospace CEO Drew Michael, while wishing him a happy birthday last year.
She also opened up about her new beau in an episode of Loose Women in September, as she said: ‘I’m very happy. He’s great, lovely. It’s really nice. It’s been a really long time for me.’
She added: ‘I’ve been on my own for a long time so it’s lovely to have met someone who makes me so happy.’
Meanwhile Louise’s ex-husband Jamie has also moved on, having married model Frida Andersson in 2021.
