Carol Vorderman works out her famous bum in animal print leggings as she attempts a handstand

CAROL Vorderman showed off her famously perky bum in a pair of sexy leopard print leggings this week.

The former Countdown star, 58, gave fans a real treat as she shared snaps of herself attempting to learn a handstand on Twitter.

The TV presenter revealed her impressive flexibility as she was taught the move by Commonwealth Games medal-winning gymnast Rear Theaker.

Snaps showed the star’s legs kicked high against a wall as she held herself upside down.

She tweeted: “First stage of learning a handstand…#WeirdFeeling…chair procedure…followed by legs up on Wall and walk hands back to the wall…

“Promise I’ll practise ⁦@raertheakerx⁩…my new teacher…hooray for @bbcradiowales ⁦@bengomedia⁩ ⁦@OwainWynEvans⁩.”

But it seemed fans were distracted by Carol’s skintight workout gear, which clung to every inch of her hourglass figure.

The maths whizz has long impressed with her perky bum, which won the Rear of the Year award in 2011 and 2014 and recently made headlines again when it looked rather Kardashian-esque.

Playing on her comparison to the curvy reality star, she even copied Kim’s famous Paper magazine shoot by balancing a Champagne glass on her bottom.

But the telly brainbox insists it is all natural, telling the Mail Online: “I promise I haven’t had bottom implants…

After her bum once again caused a stir recently, Carol revealed that she often goes “commando”, adding: “Knickers dig into my big bum”.

“I promise I haven’t had bottom implants. I’ve been working out for decades, so the shape of mine is down to years of keeping fit,” she said.

Carol walks seven miles every day and uses a 12kg kettle bell to perform sets of “12 very slow, deep squats” – a work out favoured by Kim Kardashian.
