Ulrika Jonsson is proving that age really is just a number.
The Swedish-born TV star celebrated her 58th birthday by showing off her incredible figure in a striking lemon-yellow lace bra, radiating confidence and health after giving up alcohol.
Fans were quick to notice her glowing tan, toned physique, and effortlessly styled blonde hair.
A Candid Birthday Post
Marking the milestone on social media, the mum-of-four shared a raw and unfiltered glimpse of herself. “Here I am: 58. No filter. No make-up.
Just me at 05:34hrs this morning,” she wrote, celebrating the newfound self-assurance that sobriety and self-care have brought her.
Quiet Celebrations, Big Joy
Though her children—Cameron, 30, Bo, 25, Martha, 20, and Malcolm, 16—weren’t around, Ulrika didn’t let that dampen her day.
She enjoyed lunch with a friend and even spent some time in the kitchen baking sourdough, making the most of a relaxed birthday.
Sobriety and Self-Love
Reflecting on the past year, Ulrika admitted life hasn’t always been easy.
But she credits her commitment to sobriety and self-love with giving her strength and inner peace. “Another year has passed and it’s been a largely good one.
All the better for sobriety and spirituality,” she told her followers.
For the first time, Ulrika says she feels completely comfortable in her own skin.
“It may have taken 57+ years but I’m at my best now. I’m in my prime.
I’m steadfast, anchored, solid and unwavering,” she explained, sharing a newfound love for herself after years of ups and downs.
Embracing Single Life
Ulrika also spoke openly about embracing single life. Far from seeing it as a failure, she views it as a triumph.
“Being single isn’t sad or desperate or a failure. It’s victory over fear and loneliness.
It’s triumph over a need to settle for less than you deserve. It’s peace,” she said.
Fans Applaud Her Honesty
The former Gladiators and Shooting Stars presenter has long been admired for her honesty about aging, relationships, and sobriety.
Her birthday post struck a chord with fans, who flooded her with praise:
-
“Ulrika you are simply stunning in every way.”
-
“Happy birthday Ulrika… you are still a very talented, special, and amazing woman.”
-
“Ulrika, you’re beautiful and stronger because of life.”
She even added a touch of humor for potential suitors: “Applications can be forwarded to ‘Liberated Woman In Her Prime’ and will be dealt with painstakingly and comprehensively.”
Facing Criticism with Strength
Ulrika’s openness extends beyond birthdays. She recently appeared makeup-free on Spencer Matthews’ Untapped Podcast and faced trolling about her “ageing” appearance.
Some comments criticized her for being “over-tanned” or “imperfect,” which she admitted hurt at first.
Writing for The Times, she pushed back against the negativity, highlighting the importance of women being valued beyond beauty.
“I’m a practical woman and I come with a wealth of experience, kindness and intelligence,” she wrote.
She added that her wrinkles, lines, and jowls are simply part of living a full life as a menopausal mother of four.
Aging Gracefully
Ulrika explained that she has tried Botox and fillers in the past but now prefers to embrace her age naturally.
She also praised Pamela Anderson for confidently attending red carpet events makeup-free, demonstrating that beauty isn’t only skin-deep.
