A Zumba-mad grandma has lost almost 14st after becoming addicted to the popular dance craze. Gillian Jenkins, 56, from Penarth, Wales, once weighed a whopping 23st 10lbs.

The gran-of-two has dropped an incredible ten dress sizes, shrinking from a size 30 to a size eight. And her van driver husband, Nick, 60, loves his wife's glamorous new look.
