Yahoo Finance Lorraine Kelly shares incredible throwback of bikini dip in the Antartica
Lorraine Kelly has impressed fans with a throwback clip commemorating the momentous occasion she went for a dip in the icy waters of Antarctica, wearing nothing but her bikini, fur hat and gloves.
Go, Lorraine!
"This is a first for me, this is Antartica, and I am going in," Lorraine declares in the video. The TV presenter can be seen removing her red jacket to reveal a blue floral bikini as she laughs and screams while wading into -29°C Antarctic waters.
"CAN’T BELIEVE I DID THIS! FOUR years ago - incredible trip #Antarctica #freezing #happy," Lorraine added in the caption.
Lorraine was on a dream holiday as part of her 25th wedding anniversary celebrations with husband Steve Smith at the time, so we presume her hubby was doing the filming - and firmly keeping his thermals on.
FANCY VISITING ANTARCTICA LIKE LORRAINE?
Speaking about her trip previously, Lorraine told The Sunday Post: "I've always been fascinated by explorers and in Shackleton's day Antarctica was like going to the moon. He was a remarkable man and I've been an admirer since childhood.
"I'm heading to Antarctica, Elephant Island and South Georgia, following the route of Shackleton's Endurance Trans-Atlantic Expedition. Steve will be filming for my show, and I'll be writing about the journey. I will, of course, be visiting his grave, raising a glass and toasting 'the boss'."
Lorraine and Steve have been married since 1992, and have 26-year-old daughter Rosie together. The TV star recently divulged that she popped the question to Steve, but could barely remember doing it while chatting to Good Morning Britain hosts Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway during a Valentine's Day segment.
"Do you know what?" Lorraine began. "I think I asked! I think it was me! Isn't that awful. I can't really remember it. But I'm sure I was sitting one night and I said, 'Do you know what? I think we should.' It was one of those.
"It wasn't very romantic! But actually that doesn't matter."
The couple recently shared their 28th wedding anniversary.
