Disclosed Weight Loss Journey of Judy Finnigan: Her Health Transformation Following Near-Death Experience

Television presenter Judy Finnigan, 77, discusses her health transformation in a recent interview with Bella magazine. In 2018, she experienced a major health scare when a stomach ulcer ruptured, requiring two life-saving blood transfusions. The near-fatal incident prompted Judy to work closely with her personal trainer daughter, Chloe Madeley, 34, to make positive lifestyle changes that led to a weight loss of two stone.

Judy explains that she survived the ordeal due to swift emergency responders, exceptional hospital care, and the two life-saving blood transfusions. She warns about the risks of taking ibuprofen, which led to her stomach ulcer and could have caused her to bleed out within half an hour without medical intervention.

Chloe helped Judy reevaluate her eating and exercise habits, leading to the significant weight loss. A source tells the magazine that Judy's general health has improved remarkably due to her weight loss.

Recent pictures from Judy's 77th birthday celebration showcase her weight loss, as she donned a floral dress that accentuated her new physique. The family gathered for a sun-filled garden party, complete with balloons, flowers, and a cake for the occasion.

Judy and her husband, Richard Madeley, first met in the 1980s while working together at ITV Granada before tying the knot in 1986. Although Judy has largely stepped away from the limelight, Richard remains a regular face on This Morning. The pair's story began amidst their respective marital complications. Richard was in the midst of separating from his first wife, Lynda, while Judy was wedded to journalist David Henshaw.

Over the years, Judy has faced various health challenges but has since embraced a new lease of life, losing five stone in 2018. Chloe has shared that Judy's dietary preferences have naturally evolved as she ages, with an increasing focus on healthy options like superfood salads and soups. According to Chloe, Judy's transformation was not orchestrated intentionally but happened organically as her tastes and priorities shifted.
