Trinny Woodall has confirmed via social media that she's joined Hinge.
Trinny Woodall has joined Hinge.
The 62-year-old TV star - who was in a relationship with Charles Saatchi for ten years, until their split in 2023 - has announced via social media that she's joined the online dating app.
In a video posted on Instagram, Trinny shared: "What do Keir Starmer, Macron, the new leader of Hungary - I can't remember his name - and the Chancellor of Germany all have in common? They're all 5'7".
"I've just joined Hinge for the day, to see what it's like. Can I just say something really interesting? And some of you might be with a really short man, and that's cool because I'm 5'10", it's challenging..."
Trinny was subsequently criticised by her daughter Lyla for being mean about some men on the app.
Lyla said: "You can't be mean about people on the internet."
Trinny then responded: "I'm not being mean, we're just having a girls chat. If I'm being mean I'm not showing the photograph."
Trinny previously revealed that she felt "ready" to date again after three years of being single.
The fashion icon explained that she has no plans to cohabitate with any potential flame, but she would like to have someone in her life.
She told Good Housekeeping magazine: "I don’t want to live with anyone again. I don’t want to make room in my wardrobe for anyone.
"I like my dog and my daughter – not in that order – but I want companionship. I think I’m ready for that after three years on my own."
Asked what she might wear for a date, Trinny was thinking practically in case things go wrong.
She added: "I might try a lunch date – I’d wear a suit in a flattering colour and a silky shirt, but still with trainers, so that I had the excuse of getting back to the office if I needed it."
One thing a possible partner must be wary of is paying her a compliment, as she joked she'd likely tell them to "f*** off".
She explained: "Because I'm not good at taking compliments. It makes me feel uncomfortable. But I'm a real hypocrite because I love giving people compliments.
"We don't do it enough - especially not woman to woman. I've been analysing women for decades and I pick up on a lot of things by how they hold themselves, by their body language."
