Carol Vorderman has made a sly dig at Matt Hancock after explaining their meeting at Cheltenham Festival. The Countdown legend, who lives in Clifton, was one of thousands of racegoers who descended upon Cheltenham Racecourse in Gloucestershire yesterday, March 14, as the first day of races commenced.
The 62-year-old is attending the races this week with her friend Jules, and has been wowing fans with her smart yet sexy leather looks. But last night, after changing from her sophisticated racing ensemble into her pyjamas upon her return home, Carol expressed her shock after being accused by a newspaper of "cosying up" to Matt Hancock.
When it was announced that the former Health Secretary would be entering the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! camp late last year, Carol was one of many people to criticise the MP's decision to do so, emphasising the last half of his surname in a video she posted to Instagram at the time. After it was suggested that the pair were getting close at Cheltenham Festival, Carol took the time to explain the "truth" behind the photographs of her and Matt with her social media followers.
