Ruth Jacott (64) has lost 16 kilos: 'I was no longer comfortable in my skin'

Ruth Jacott has drastically changed her lifestyle. The 64-year-old singer has become more conscious of her diet and is now often found in the gym. She has lost more than 16 kilos. “Man, I’m so glad I did this!”

Jacott shares the end result on Instagram with a series of photos of herself in the gym. “I was so incredibly tired of not feeling good in my skin that I decided to face myself,” she writes.

The singer “completely let herself go” after the corona period. “I kept partying, enjoyed my wine, and when I went out to dinner, I didn’t pay attention to anything.” According to Jacott, this led to her having to carry around “20 kg too much” every day.

Jacott, known for songs like Blijf bij mij (Stay with Me), writes that she is happy with her “new lifestyle”. “I notice it on stage, but also in daily life; where in January I sometimes had to drag myself to the gym, I now go whistling.”
