1. She Believes Age Is Just a Number

Age ain’t nothing but a number for Tess. “I genuinely believe you’re only as old as you feel,” she told Health & Wellbeing. “I’m very much of the mind that as long as I’m fit, healthy, able to do exactly what I demand of my body and enjoy my life, then that’s all good with me. I’m so grateful for good health – you get what you put in. I’ve looked after myself for as long as I can remember, I’ve had to for the nature of my business, but also because I want to enjoy a long and healthy life. I honestly thought that I might feel differently now I’ve reached this landmark age, but I don’t. I have kids and they demand that you’re on your toes physically and mentally. They keep me young – young at heart, at least!”

2. She Doesn’t Skip Meals

Tess refuses to skip meals: “I’m a three-meals-a-day girl, and I graze a lot as well,” she told Health & Wellbeing. “I start the day with porridge, blueberries and maple syrup, or I’ll purée some mango and throw in some banana slices, then sprinkle some granola and flaxseed on top. That said, at the weekends, I’ll splurge and we’ll have a pancake making session for brunch, usually with the girls, which is always fun – I don’t swerve the pancakes or the homemade French toast! Lunch might be a falafel wrap with vegetables and hummus, a homemade veggie burger or a tuna mayo sandwich. Dinner is usually rice, vegetables and chicken, or I’ll make fajitas, and we’ll do roast chicken on the weekend. Chicken is the only meat I eat – I haven’t eaten red meat since I was a teenager.

3. She Indulges

Tess has a “sweet tooth that must be satisfied!” she told Health & Wellbeing. “I can’t imagine a life without chocolate and cake. I could never deny myself cake because that just makes for an unhappy life. I’m a big believer in moderation. I tend not to deny myself what I fancy, because, like all of us, as soon as we deny ourselves treats, then we fixate upon it and it becomes an unhealthy relationship. I subscribe to the theory that a little bit of what you fancy does you good – as long as you’re not reckless, it’s not necessarily an unhealthy choice. Have a chocolate bar at 4pm – we’re British for goodness’ sake, afternoon tea used to be a meal here – it still is in my house!”

4. She Focuses On Building Strength

Tess focuses on being strong, not skinny. “It’s being strong enough that I can do whatever I demand of my body without it feeling tired,” she told Health & Wellbeing. “Fitness means avoiding aches and pains and feeling strong, which I like. I’m the sort of person who has a hard time staying still – I’m always on the go and I like it that way. I enjoy being physically active, it’s always been a part of my life, so working out means that I’m able to stay strong, fit and not feel my age.”

5. She Works Out with a Trainer

Tess trains with a professional to stay in shape. “I work out a couple of times a week with a trainer, and then at home, I’ll skip, do a few light weights, or get on the running machine – I can do 15 minutes, watch something on the iPad at the same time and not even realise that I’m running – happy days! Is this not what you want to hear in your magazine? Sorry!” she told Health & Wellbeing. “I dread going to the gym, but then when I get there, I find myself enjoying my workout, and afterwards, I’m so glad that I’ve done it. I think we all feel that way a bit, a lot of us are intimidated by the thought of committing to that routine, because it is hard, but then if it was easy, everyone would do it and we’d all have six packs. So it is a commitment, but it’s one that I will commit myself to because I enjoy the benefits. I like being able to eat a little bit of what I like and wear the same size jeans that I’ve worn since I was 20.”

6. She Double Tasks on the Treadmill

Tess has a great way to make time pass by fast while doing cardio. “I've got a treadmill, where I've realized I can watch Netflix and run 5k at the same time,' she says. 'I would never sit down and watch TV in the day but, on the treadmill, I can justify it,” she told Women’s Health.

1. She Loves the Beach

“Gorgeous beach days and unending cocktails 🍸,” Ileana said once. “Being active on sand isn't just about soaking up some rays. When sand moves beneath your feet, it engages your ankles, arches, and calves, which can burn extra calories while you move,” says Cedars-Sinai. “Taking it slow, staying on wet sand, and wearing shoes can help keep you upright and enjoying a great workout in the ocean air this summer.”

2. She Had Body Dysmorphia

“I’ve always worried about how I looked. I’ve worried my hips are too wide, my thighs too wobbly, my waist not narrow enough, my tummy not flat enough, my boobs not big enough, my butt too big, my arms too jiggly, nose not straight enough, lips not full enough….. I’ve worried that I’m not tall enough, not pretty enough, not funny enough, not smart enough, not ‘perfect’ enough,” she once wrote. “Not realising I was never meant to be perfect. I was meant to be beautifully flawed.

Different.

Quirky.

Unique.

Every scar, every bump, every “flaw” just made me, me.

My own kind of beautiful.

That’s why I’ve stopped. Stopped trying to conform to the world’s ideals of what’s meant to be beautiful.

I’ve stopped trying so hard to fit in. Why should I?? When I was born to stand out.”

3. She Says “Take Care of Yourself”

Ileana once wrote: “Take care of yourself. Take care of what you choose to put into your system. The body you have is uniquely beautiful so nourish it - physically as well as mentally.

Lastly dress up, show up, not for anyone else. Just do it for you. It’s so worth it. Trust me. ♥️”

4. She Likes Dogs Over Humans

Ileana shared a photo of herself with a dog. “If you really think I’m ever gonna look at a human like this……Hahahahahahahahahhaha,” she captioned it. “#doggosoverhumans @orotheindie 🥹♥” “Owning a dog can help you live longer. A comprehensive review of studies published between 1950 and 2019 found that dog owners had a lower risk of death. Studies suggest that dog owners have lower blood pressure levels and improved responses to stress. Even just living with a dog makes a difference—people who had experienced previous coronary events had an even higher level of risk reduction for death. Research has concluded that the bond between humans and dogs reduces stress, which is a major cause of cardiovascular problems,” says the American Kennel Club.

5. She Enjoys Some Country Air

“Throwing it back to the time I was casually chilling in lovely picturesque English countryside, in animal print, black lace, and goth makeup 💀 😂,” she captioned a photo she shared recently. “Grill out on the patio. Or if the weather is cool, bundle up in warm clothes and sit around a fire pit. If you and your friends haven't been vaccinated, keep your gathering small, maintaining social distance from others. Plan activities that don't require close contact. You may even choose to have everyone bring their own food and drinks. Wash your hands when you arrive and leave the gathering,” says the Mayo Clinic.

1. She Has Learned to Love Herself

“HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY ✨ Today is a day where we can celebrate us. I have so many women in my life who inspire me every day and I wanted to give a little something today that can hopefully inspire one of you. Loving our imperfections can be difficult, but when you learn to embrace them and realise that our imperfections don’t define us, they are just a part of us alongside everything else that creates you as a person. None of us are the same, and that’s a special thing. We are one of a kind 🤍 This picture shows me at my most vulnerable… but I’m learning to love myself, imperfections and all. And so should you,” she wrote once.

2. She Was Once “Unhealthily Skinny”

"I went from a size 10 to a six, and it’s the smallest I’ve ever been as a young adult. Because of my height, this made me look unhealthily skinny, of which I was (not eating barely anything, feeling ill all the time, tired, dizzy) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my boobs and my bum and those curves I once had and I missed them,” she wrote on Instagram. "The point of this [is], since coming out of Love Island, I found my love for food again and yes I’m getting back to my usual size."

3. She Likes a Nice Bath

“Drowning my sorrows in the bath because my Met Gala invite got lost 💔…,” she captioned one recent photo. Consider adding Epsom salt. “Pour about 300 grams (1.25 cups) of Epsom salt into a clean bathtub as it fills with hot water. (Avoid using Epsom salt in a tub with jets, a hot tub or a whirlpool bath unless the manufacturer says it’s OK.),” says the Cleveland Clinic.

4. This is Her Skin Icon

"At the moment the make-up I use does change fairly often, not necessarily my staples like concealer and foundation, but I do switch up the bronzers, blushers and mascara that I use,” she has said. Her icon? "Meghan Markle, her skin is absolutely flawless – her make-up always looks lovely as her make-up always looks lovely and natural."

5. She Has Had Acne

“I suffered from acne about a year and a half ago and then I started to work with a skin aesthetician, who helped me to find my skincare routine and helped me to start dealing with the breakouts. Now that my acne has gone, we are on more of a journey to find the right products; doing treatments like microneedling once a month to deal with the scarring. I am so happy with the outcome because the difference from what it was to now is just incredible. I genuinely used to think there was never going to be a time when I could get rid of the acne and I think when you are suffering you think it’s going to be with you forever. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t an overnight process – it took me a year and a half to be acne free, but through a good skincare routine and using the right products it can be combated. My skin aesthetician advised me that the products you use to treat acne don’t start working for 4-6 months, so it took six months before I started to see a difference. The secret to good skin is also about good lifestyle, it’s all about looking after the inside to make your skin glow,” she told Hello.

Day was prepared to join Love Island. She says to Radio Times that her positive attitude helped her get through it. "I don't get knocked back easily, I'm always like this is what was meant to happen.

1. Running In the Park

Keeper focuses on staying active over spending hours at the gym. “I used to dance, but now I just do whatever I can whenever I feel like it,” she says. “I might run around the house, run around the park or do a few star jumps. I’m not rigorous with it – I don’t do it very often at all! I like to avoid fatty or sugary foods, but it’s not a priority –I cheat every day! My mum is really slim, so thank goodness that I inherited those genes.”

2. Beauty Essentials

Keeper has a few beauty essentials she can’t live without. “Yves Saint Laurent’s Touche Éclat highlighter, because it makes me look more awake in the morning,” she says. “I also love my eyelash curlers. I curl them every morning – even if I’m up at 6am! A good red lipstick. My favorite is Chanel Rouge Coco because the color is flattering on my skin tone. It’s important to use make-up to highlight your beauty, rather than try to create something that’s not there. I have done it in the past and it looks terrible.”

3. Playing Phoebe

Keeper loves the complexity of her You character. “On first look, Phoebe comes across as vapid, a bit of an airhead, materialistic, superficial… and she can be all those things,” she says. “But the real core of this character is goodness, light and naivety. She has a lot of love to give – and she doesn't have a lot of love in her life, and I think that makes her quite a lonely individual. But it doesn't necessarily make her a jaded person. And I think that's really nice – she's very optimistic, despite the tone of the whole show.”

4. Rock and Roll Fashionista

Keeper describes her style as very edgy and rock and roll. “I own a lot of leather jackets,” she says. “I like the idea that it looks as if I’ve just rolled out of bed and put my outfit on, when actually I’ve very meticulously planned what I’m going to wear!”

5. EastEnders Star

Keeper started her career on the iconic British soap EastEnders. “It was my drama school!” she says. “I was there from 18 till 21 or 22 and I learned how to work with multiple directors. Not just over the years but over weeks because you have such a wide range of episodes to work across. It just taught me so many skills. It's a skill set that you can only learn by being on the kind of set where everything's fast paced and a huge ensemble. It was like a bootcamp – a really great learning experience and set me up so well.”
