1. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Roberts has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared her tips in an interview with A Life With Frills. “I am diligent with my skincare. I always wash my face before bed and moisturise. Everyday I put on Vitamin C Serum by SkinCeuticals too. When I travel, I make sure to see facialist and aesthetician Jo-Anne Newman. Her treatments have done wonders for my skin!

2. She Drinks Enough Water

Roberts makes sure to stay hydrated. She tells A Life With Frills that this helps with her skin. “I also drink a lot of water. I feel that it is the easiest way to hydrate your skin and flush out toxins.” Harvard Health states that drinking water has a lot of benefits. “Drinking enough water each day is crucial for many reasons: to regulate body temperature, keep joints lubricated, prevent infections, deliver nutrients to cells, and keep organs functioning properly. Being well-hydrated also improves sleep quality, cognition, and mood.”

3. She Does A Variety Of Workouts

Roberts does a lot of things to stay in shape. She listed some of her favorites in an interview with GetTheGloss. “After work, if the sun is shining, I head to the park and take a walk in nature,” she says. “Then I either do a Tabata style circuit workout at the park where I get my heart rate pumping or I train with personal trainer Dalton Wong over Zoom, with his mini bands and sliders to make the exercises extra intense. When studios are open I love spinning. I go to Boom Cycle, it’s one of my favourite studios.”

4. She Got Her Love Of Exercise From Her Mother

Roberts loves to work out. She tells GetTheGloss that she has this attitude because of her mother. “I love exercise,” she says. “It’s not only for my physical health, but it’s for my mental health, so it’s very important to me. My mom was a personal trainer when I was younger. She did step aerobics in the 80s, so it’s kind of set in stone that it’s part of my lifestyle. Even when I go home and visit her – which has been a while – we do yoga classes and hike together.”

5. She Dances

Dance is a big part of Roberts’ life. She is a live performer, she grew up dancing, she appeared on Strictly, and she hosts a dance show. She tells GetTheGloss that dance isn’t just a good workout for her, but a way to boost her energy. “When you’re feeling low, put on some music and just wiggle your body,” she says. “Even if you’re not feeling up for exercising, if you do some kind of movement it gets the endorphins going. That was something I did naturally, but as I’ve got older dance isn’t necessarily part of my life like it was before. If you’re feeling a bit low, put on some music, bounce around, and not to quote Taylor Swift but ‘Shake It Off’ and I’m telling you, you’ll feel better, even after just one song.”

Ashley Roberts, the member of the Pussycat Dolls and star of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! (2012), Dancing on Ice (2013–2014) and Strictly Come Dancing (2018), is somehow 40, although she looks ageless. Want proof?

1. She Lifts

“Lifting gets my heart rate up and makes me look amazing, but more importantly it makes me feel strong. Scrap that, I don’t just feel strong – I am strong, and I think it’s important for women to feel that way. The only thing I don’t like about it are the callused hands. They suck. I went back to LA recently and didn’t do any weight training for a while and it was the first time in ages that I didn’t have hands that looked like I’d been working in construction,” she said, according to Coach.

2. She Has Been “Pretty Much a Vegan”

“A vegan diet that’s low in processed foods and high in whole, plant-based foods has many health benefits, says the Cleveland Clinic, soon quoting dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD: “A plant-based diet involves more than not eating meat or animal products. It focuses on eating mainly fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts, seeds and oils.” She added: “Just eating more plant-based foods overall is a huge leap in the right direction. So if being a vegan feels overwhelming, consider starting with a goal of eating more plant-based foods.”

3. She Drinks Vegan Protein Shakes

Plant-based protein powders are a low-sugar (if you pick one that’s low sugar, please do), high-fiber alternative to popular dairy-based supplements. A study by the University of Tampa that compared plant protein to whey found it to be equally as effective at changing body composition and boosting muscle recovery and growth. But with less sugar and a healthier fat profile, plant-based proteins will also improve your gut health at the same time as they’re fueling your muscles. Hemp, rice, and pea proteins are all good options; however, you’ll want to ensure you’re getting a complete protein with a full amino acid profile, which is why a blend that combines all three is superior.

4. She Does Yoga

“I still do a lot of yoga. Not only is it good for mobility and injury prevention, it de-stresses me too. You need to have a balance of hardcore stuff and things that centre you, plus your body needs time to recover after doing heavy deadlifts and squats,” she said, according to Coach.

5. She Enjoys Fatty Foods Once in a While

Ashley’s go-to indulgence is pizza. “Ordering in? Whatever you do, eat off a plate—not out of the box! Research shows that people consume more when their food is served on a larger plate. In fact, one Georgia Institute of Technology study discovered that those eating off a 12-inch plate consumed 22% more calories than those dining on 10-inches! We can only imagine what those stats would look like is a giant pizza box was thrown into the mix. Not only does eating off a smaller plate trick your brain into thinking you've eaten more, keeping the other slices out of reach will make you think twice before going back for more,” says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

Ashley Roberts has done a lot in her career. She was once a member of the girl group, The Pussycat Dolls. She’s also a presenter on both Global’s Heat 00s and Heart FM. Roberts’ latest gig is hosting Netflix’s Dance Monsters. She just shared a new set of beach photos on Instagram this week. In them, she posed in a tide pool and wore an orange bathing suit. Roberts captioned the post, “Santa better sail.” How does she stay so fit?

Roberts opened up about her fitness approach to Express. She says that exercise is something she enjoys doing, which is why she is able to stay consistent. “For me, I enjoy working out for my physical health but to be honest it’s more for my mental health, it just makes me feel better and it gets the endorphins going. I like to workout and I like to train. That was always a part of my upbringing because my mum was really into fitness.”

2. She Walks

Roberts revealed some of her favorite exercises to Express. She says that one thing she likes to do is go on walks. “Even if there is a day where I am not working out hard, I try to get outside and just go for a walk and be in nature. It is a part of my life and I enjoy it and it makes me feel good.”

3. She Stays Hydrated

Roberts tells Express that one of her biggest wellness secrets is staying hydrated. “Coming from the desert, we have to drink water to stay hydrated. It is so overlooked in a sense but drinking lots of water is really good to stay hydrated, to stay flushed, and to stay healthy. Drink the H2O kids!”

4. She Does A Lot Of Workouts

Roberts tells Express that she likes do to a lot of different exercises. “I love spin, I love yoga, I love boxing, weight training, dancing. And oh my god I'm obsessed right now with this class at the XR; it’s the best cardio and the music! They have the best playlist and if you close your eyes, it's like you’re in Mykonos or something.”

5. She Works With A Trainer

Roberts tells Coach Magazine that she likes to work with trainers when she goes to the gym. She says that they help her work harder and stay motivated. “I go to a gym called W10 and the trainers there are more hardcore than any class instructor, which I love. As far as I’m concerned, anything that doesn’t challenge you doesn’t change you. I need someone to really push me to motivate me. If I go to the gym by myself it’s impossible to train as hard.”

1. She Lifts Weights

Ashley revealed to Coach magazine that weight lifting is her go-to workout. “Lifting gets my heart rate up and makes me look amazing, but more importantly it makes me feel strong. Scrap that, I don’t just feel strong – I am strong, and I think it’s important for women to feel that way. The only thing I don’t like about it are the callused hands. They suck. I went back to LA recently and didn’t do any weight training for a while and it was the first time in ages that I didn’t have hands that looked like I’d been working in construction,” she said.

2. She Mixes in Lots of Other Workouts

Ashley also sweats via a variety of other ways. “I love spin, I love yoga, I love boxing, weight training, dancing. And oh my god I'm obsessed right now with this class at the XR; it’s the best cardio and the music! They have the best playlist and if you close your eyes, it's like you’re in Mykonos or something,” she told Express UK.

3. She Eats (Mostly) Vegan

Ashley keeps animal products to a minimum. “I’m pretty much a vegan now, but I don’t think having to eat that informed my decision – not consciously at least. I try to have a good diet,” she told Coach. “Every now and then I’ll have a treat, but I love most healthy foods so it’s not as if I’m depriving myself. My trainer sometimes worries I’m not getting enough protein, but I have vegan protein smoothies to make up for the lack of meat and fish.”

4. This Is Her Go-To Green Smoothie

Ashley drinks this green smoothie almost every morning. “Most mornings I blend up a bunch of organic greens, such as kale and spinach, add some raw fruit such as banana, avocado and blueberries, then finish it off with some almond milk and maybe some agave if my sweet tooth needs satisfying. Finally, I add some vegan protein powder to ensure I hit my quota for the day. Try it. Even if you’re not vegan I guarantee you’ll love it,” she told Coach.

5. She Works Out for Physical AND Mental Health

Ashley doesn’t workout only to look good. “For me, I enjoy working out for my physical health but to be honest it’s more for my mental health, it just makes me feel better and it gets the endorphins going,” she told Express.

6. She Walks

Ashley makes sure to get her heartrate up, even on days she isn’t in the gym. “Even if there is a day where I am not working out hard, I try to get outside and just go for a walk and be in nature. It is a part of my life and I enjoy it and it makes me feel good,” she told Express.

7. She Prioritizes Hydration

Ashley maintains that one “overlooked” secret for health is hydration. “Coming from the desert, we have to drink water to stay hydrated. It is so overlooked in a sense but drinking lots of water is really good to stay hydrated, to stay flushed, and to stay healthy. Drink the H2O kids!” she told Express.
