"New hair day and I absolutely love it. I’ve gone lighter all ready for our holiday," she typed alongside the image of herself beaming at her refreshed tresses. "Thank you @hair_by_marie1271," she added as she was seen posing in a hot pink jumper with white shirt.

We all love you sooooo much." Noel also teased: "Won't say how old but still younger than me."

Meanwhile, the couple's fourth eldest daughter Katie, 19, also posted a heartfelt message to her mum as she gushed over Sue's youthful appearance. "Happy birthday to my favourite lady ever," Katie wrote on Instagram. "I love and appreciate you so so much. Another year only and I would say you don’t look a day over 20."

The celebrations came just days after the she was involved in a car crash which sadly left her family motor in a mess. She posted a worrying snap to Instagram which featured a police van and a fire engine, she later confirmed that she'd thankfully escaped the road collision unscathed and was "so grateful" that none of her kids were in the vehicle at the time.

"Everyone was ok," she captioned the Instagram story. "Not how I expected my day to go but thankfully everyone was ok." Sue added: "The car isn't but it's only metal and can be sorted,'' in the story posted on the family's social media account. "So thankful I didn't have the kids in the car though. Also thank you to all who stopped to ask if I was ok.''
