Carol Vorderman: Countdown star declares she's a 'lucky woman' for unexpected reason

Carol Vorderman, 58, took to the micro-blogging and shared a snap of herself hidden away in a leafy location in Wales. In view of her 412,000, the former Countdown star revealed she was holidaying in a modern style tent. The small-screen star captioned the post: “Morning…I bl**dy love my life sitting here with a pot of hot coffee in a big tent in West Wales #HeavenOnEarth…I’m the happiest luckiest woman in the whole wide world #JustSaying.” The picture showed a dome shaped room, with wooden flooring accessorised by a chic rug.

In front of two beds was a fireplace opposite a large bay window, which overlooked green scenery.

Celebrity pals and fans flocked to comment on the post, with many gushing over the style of the tent.

Former Big Brother presenter Davina McCall said: “This makes me very happy.”

While former Brookside actress Claire Sweeney simply wrote: “Wow.”

A fan quipped: “That’s not a tent, that’s a bungalow…enjoy!”

Another person added: “A bit different to any tent I have ever ‘camped’ in!”

Meanwhile, the Countdown legend recently shared a snap with her daughter Katie King who she declared her “twin”.

The Countdown legend came across a photo of the pair looking very alike, but her followers were seemingly distracted by something else.

She was seen sporting her former brunette tresses, as she stood alongside her eldest, 28, in a leafy street. “Me and my girl have been trolling through old pics today… found this one circa 2012… awwwwwww,”(sic) she captioned it.

Carol’s fans were quick to point out a grammatical error, saying how she had used the word “trolling” incorrectly.

“Trawling you mean, you cant troll yourself,” one person corrected. “I have a huge box full too – I must go look through now, you reminded me.”

Two others went on: “Great at numbers… rubbish at English. Trawling, Carol. Trawling,” and: “#trolling. Lol.”(sic)

But, later in the day, she once again mentioned her daughter as she answered fans’ posts about her supposed mistake.

She tweeted: “#VorderNerdAlert… because I’m a consonant/vowel/numbers nerd and some of you said I used the verb ‘to troll’ incorrectly earlier…

“‘My daughter and I have just trolled through some old pics’, I’ve looked it up and lo and behold I was right… to systemically search.”

The presenter went on to compare a throwback of herself with one of Katie at a similar age on the micro-blogging site.
