Susanna Reid, the host of ITV's Good Morning Britain, left fans stunned with her real age after she shared a birthday post on Instagram. The telly star posted a lovely photo with her mum, Sue Smith, and expressed her joy about ageing.
"53! Ageing is a blessing," she wrote in the caption, adding, "So happy to be able to celebrate my happy birthday weekend with my mum and my family around me.
"Feeling loved and happy – thanks all." Fans were quick to send their birthday wishes and compliments, with many saying the BAFTA-nominated journalist looked much younger than 53, reported the Mirror.
"Happy birthday Susanna and I hope you had a great day and you don't look a day over 20 xxx," one fan wrote, while another complimented: "Happy Birthday you ageless wonder."
A third admirer said, "You look fabulous at 53 Susanna! Hope you've had a lovely day :)."
Others praised Susanna's positive attitude towards ageing. "Happy birthday and hug your mother it is a total blessing, we never know what's around the corner apart from GMB," one person commented.
The birthday fun carried on at the Good Morning Britain studios on Monday 11 December, where Susanna was surprised with a yummy strawberry sponge cake made by her co-host Ed Balls, 56.
She also shared on her Instagram Story that her former co-star Piers Morgan, 58, had gifted her a low-alcohol present for her special day, thanking him for the 'gift that ensured I had a clear head' for her early morning start.
The duo hosted the programme together for six years, before he decided to leave the morning show in 2021.
Susanna Reid, the popular TV presenter, has always been open about her close bond with her mum Sue, a retired nurse who now volunteers as a health visitor. "She is amazing, my hero," Susanna gushed about her mum in 2021.
Despite their strong bond now, Sue admitted that parenting Susanna during her teenage years was challenging. "Susanna was lovely until she was 13," Sue shared on Good Morning Britain in 2016. "She was absolutely wonderful.
"She was a joy. When she was 13, overnight she turned absolutely horrible. When she was 15 we sort of said, 'Look, hang on a minute, either we're going to get on well and support each other or we're going to make each other's lives hell' and we've been best friends ever since. I'm proud of her."
