Great-gran, 91, looks '20 years younger' as she puts bikini body down to 'pub grub'

A 91-year-old great-gran says she looks '20 years younger' due to hearty pub food.

The grandmother-of-18 claims she is regularly mistaken for a woman in her 70s rather than her 90s – and even has people accusing her of lying about her age. She said she loves homemade pies and a carvery but insists she hasn't ever gained any weight and still stuns in her bikini swimsuit.

Ex-pat Joan insists she doesn’t feel like an OAP and spends her days travelling with boyfriend, David Winder, 84, a retired cargo coordinator, and sunning herself in her garden in Costa Calida, Murcia, Spain. Joan, a retired dress maker, originally from Blackburn, Lancashire, said: “I don’t know how to behave like a 91-year-old - I just act the same as I did when I was 21."
