Martin Frizell shares rare new photo of Fiona Phillips

From time to time, Martin issues updates and new photos of Fiona to social media. Yesterday (April 10), the former This Morning editor shared a snapshot of the 65-year-old enjoying an outdoor stroll while eating an ice cream and wearing a pair of large sunglasses.

“Very touched by many nice comments from folk asking about Fiona whilst I’m on our short Tartan Noir Scottish tour so here’s a picture of what she’s up to in my absence – she’s changed Magnum flavours!” Martin wrote in his caption.

“This was Fiona out in the London sunshine this week and Almond has been replaced by the white chocolate version. Simple pleasures but a highlight of the day,” he continued.
