She explained, “I’ve shrunk,” while best friend Lee, 51, replied: “I know I’ve shrunk.”

Jenny went on to explain: “I can tell by my jeans.” Lee then asked: “Is it your legs what have shrunk?” [sic]

Jenny, 64, replied: “Must have.”

The funny pair then went on to measure the inside of Jenny’s leg using a tape measure, revealing she was still 30 inches when it comes to trouser length.

While Jenny didn’t share exactly how much weight she’d lost or how she’s achieved it, the star seemed pleased with her progress.

The star lives in Hull and films the Channel 4 show from friend Lee’s caravan in Patrington Haven caravan park. They’ve been friends for years, since Jenny was the landlady of a local pub which Lee frequented as a regular.

The best friends don’t usually live together, but earlier this year they isolated together so they could continue to film the show for fans.

The pair have filmed on the show since 2014 and have become fan favourites. Recently, Lee shared an unrecognisable snap of Jenny looking fabulous back in the day, which sent fans wild.

Still, sometimes the hilarious pair’s unusual habits divide fans. Earlier this month fans were unsure about Lee’s habit of dunking his toast into a cup of tea, with some labelling it “disgusting.”

Lee held a cup of tea in his hand and was seen dunking a piece of toast into it without butter or jam, leaving Jenny in disgust.

The Channel 4 star took to the pair's joint Instagram page on Tuesday to recall the moment and shared a snap of him eating his wet toast.

"Who dunks toast in tea like me is it right or wrong Jenny thinks it's disgusting. who's side are on you," he asked. Many of his followers took to the comments section to condemn dunking toast in tea and were left unimpressed with his actions.

One follower wrote: "That is wrong on so many levels lol. Wet bread is grim."

However, despite many people not agreeing with Lee, some fans rushed to agree with him and said they enjoying doing it also.

"I've been doing this since I was a toddler and everyone thinks it's disgusting. I've never met anyone who does this," another person wrote.
