ASHLEY Roberts has shared some photos of her rarely seen mum and fans can’t get over how young she looks.
The 40-year-old, currently hosting E4’s The Real Dirty Dancing, posted the snaps to celebrate mum Peggy’s 70th birthday.
Alongside the mix of throwbacks and recent pics, Pussycat Doll Ashley wrote: “My Momma. 70 years young! HBD Mom/Mama P/Masha/Peggy
“Thank god I got you
.”
Fans rushed to wish Peggy happy birthday, with many remarking about how great she looks.
One wrote: “Now we know where you get your good looks from.
.”
Another said: “She looks amazing!
.”
And a third added: “Ahhh I get it now. THAT’S why you are so hot
.”
Ashley, who rose to fame alongside Nicole Scherzinger with hits like Don’t Cha, recently opened up about her own age-defying looks.
In an exclusive chat with The Celeb Report, she said: “As you get older you start giving less f***s. You are more connected to yourself and wiser.
“I feel excited about the years to come because I feel better than how I felt in my twenties. Part of how I express my femininity is feeling sexy.
“It makes me sad to think about women not allowing themselves to feel that as we continue on.
“I’m like, ‘Let’s get our sassy, fierce, feminine sides out there’. Let’s embrace that part of ourselves. It doesn’t stop with age, right? I mean, we’ve all seen Jennifer Lopez at 52 . . . ”
The Pussycat Dolls reunited in 2019 with plans for a tour — since been cancelled in part due to the pandemic — and performed on The X Factor in an X-rated show that drew more than 400 complaints.
But Ashley hit back at critics, saying they should ask themselves why they were so incensed.
She said: “When we performed on X Factor it was a different kind of fierceness than in our twenties.
“We were women showing up together and some people really got triggered by that. An interesting conversation would be to ask why.
“Why are you triggered by us? What is that bringing up within you? Maybe you should unleash your little tiger in there.
“Listen, it’s a balance. I don’t walk around every day with my lube and Latex outfits.
“But it is nice to allow that part of yourself to exist. Why not?”
