Loose Women’s Mariella Frostrup took a brutal swipe at Demi Moore for ‘trying to look like she’s in her 20s’ during Thursday’s episode of the ITV show. 

The panel – consisting of Mariella, 62, Kaye Adams, 62, Denise Welch, 67, and Nadia Sawalha, 60 – returned to the live studio to talk about a number of topics, including Denise’s 67th birthday. 

After the second advert break, Kaye pointed out that today (Thursday 22 May) is her special day and it got the group talking about what being a woman in your 60s looks like in 2025.

Kaye pointed that in terms of looks, she thinks that times have changed ‘so much’, adding: ‘Demi Moore saying it’s just not what it used to be.’ 

Later on in the chat, Mariella said: ‘You mentioned Demi Moore there for example, I would not take advice from Demi Moore about how to behave or how to age in your 60s.

‘I think she looks like she’s trying to look like she’s in her 20s.

‘The expectation on women, particularly as they age, to keep looking as young as they can be.

‘I think it’s so, so, toxic.

‘Ultimately you’re constantly feel like you’re failing because you do age and there’s nothing you can do about it.

‘I guess you can go and have your face stretched.

‘But actually it’s going to fall down a bit and then don’t be giving advice to people about how to age if you’re so terrified of aging that you need to do that much work to yourself.’ 

Actress Demi – who is now 62 – sH๏τ to fame in the 70s and has a very successful career. 

Speaking about aging at the Time100 Submit last month, Demi said: ‘I think that there was a sense of things ending at a certain point as opposed to the reality, which is just that we’re evolving, it’s not ending.’ 

‘I also have thought recently about this idea that aging and being old are not the same thing.

‘And somehow we’ve confused that and that aging actually is a tremendous gift.’ 

She added: ‘I would not trade — you could not pay me to be 21. 

‘As good as it might sound, it was torture!’ 

It comes after Denise Welch left Wednesday’s Loose Women panel lost for words after a rude comment about her appearance when a beauty debate took an outrageous turn.

Anchor Christine spoke about Dame Judy Dench’s recent live sculpture, and Judy later revealed that she doesn’t have a relationship with her face, and her daughter isn’t a fan of looking in the mirror.

Denise confessed that she thinks she’s had a such a ‘wonderful career which is based on everything except her looks, whereas some people’s is based on their looks’, and she noted that she understands where she is coming from.

She went on to say: ‘I remember when I was 50, a long time ago, somebody said to me, I think it was George Bernard Shaw, not that he said to me, but somebody told me…

‘They said George Bernard Shaw said when you get to 50, you’ve got the face you deserve.

‘I remember thinking I deserve a far worse one. 

‘So I am glad to just have one that’s functioning, honestly the abuse I’ve done to my face over the year. I’m okay with it. 

‘I can’t bare this vagina neck I’ve got going on. 

‘That’s what I’d get rid of. I’m okay.’

Giggling away to herself, Christine asked: ‘Did you come up with that terminology?’

Denise said: ‘No my friend Jackie said I’ve got f**ny neck… Sorry…

‘Can I not say that?’
