Jack Whitehall: Judy Murray has an ‘ageless beauty’


Jack Whitehall says Judy Murray has an "ageless beauty".

The ‘A League of Their Own’ star has revealed he has a bit of a crush on tennis ace Andy Murray’s mother, who is competing on the current series of BBC One celebrity dance contest ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, despite the 29-year age gap between them.

Speaking about his meeting with the 55-year-old tennis coach, he admitted: "Me and Judy have some history. When I see her it feels like we’re dating, although maybe she doesn’t feel the same.

"She is just a wonderful woman. I met her first when I was playing tennis for ‘A League of Their Own’ and she watched me and was impressed by my lob.

"I was very excited to see she was doing Strictly."

However, the ‘Fresh Meat’ actor, 26, confessed he felt a bit jealous when he saw pictures of her with all of the hunky male dancers.

Jack added to The Sun newspaper: "But when I looked at the publicity shots she posted with Brendan Cole with his hands all over her, I did feel a nasty pang cutting straight to the very core of me. I was very jealous of Judy in the arms of another man.

"She has an ageless beauty. She is what I’d describe as a cougar.

"She is single but watch this space. The thing about her is that when you meet her she is so not what you’d expect, she is so friendly and warm and lovely."
