With another adding: ‘Cat Deeley has not aged in 20 years.’ 

Meanwhile, later in the show, Cat was hilariously duped by her pals as she unwittingly appeared in their undercover segment.

The hosts donned disguises and recruited a team of helpers into tricking Cat during a promotional day for her new children’s book.

The pair hilariously photobombed the star as she posed in a photoshoot, while Ant donned a koala costume and wreaked havoc behind her as she read a story.

The prank culminated in a fire being set behind her with the sprinklers being set off, causing chaos in the studio.

Though Cat rescued the koala from the fire, thinking it was a work experience student inside, she later said in the studio that if she’d known it was Ant, she wouldn’t have bothered.
